I was going to post a rant on drivers in Linux, but on my newest Lenovo laptop Linux Mint/Ubuntu off the shelve driver support is actually complete and Windows 10 (unsupported by Lenovo) extremely lacking (no wifi driver, no lid driver, no proper standby). And there's no way I'm going to start using Windows 11.

So yeah, maybe this is the year of Linux. After decades on this planet :p





Thinkpad E14, same experience. Windows 11 installer doesn't even see the wifi card, under Ubuntu everything works ootb.
