See if anyone has reviewed how the model of interest performs under Linux or check if there’s a report for it on linux-hardware.org

Around 2020, I had purchased a new laptop and desktop. It took about two years until everything worked on the laptop under Arch, main issue being the microphone and speakers. About another year and a half until the same on Debian. On the desktop, the wireless card didn’t work with Linux on day one and still doesn’t work that well on Linux to this day. Swapped that thing out with an Intel wireless card.

Driver support for various old peripherals and nvidia cards

Surprisingly good in most cases. Main thing missing for me is support for programs directly talking to USB devices (understandably, the associated driver support is its own can of worms).

1000% agree. Had to install an older version of Pinta because it was also gnomed a while back.

While I’ve yet to contribute to open-source projects aside from reporting issues, I’ve got my eyes set on something like libadapta. As soon as one of the programs I use on a daily basis gets gnomed, I’m going all in to soft fork libadwaita and restore as many GTK3 features as I can.
