Choosing a new Linux distro for my old MacBook, purely based on the functionality of the wifi drivers available on the live CD

@aburka Just removed Pop_OS! 22.04 from a 2012 MacBook Air this weekend. It was largely stable, but I had persistent issues with the touchpad not responding after suspend, and infrequent issues with a failure to wake after suspend.

Switched to Fedora 40. Wifi was very slow after install (not on the live disk), but fixed by installing the correct drivers. No issues so far, but too soon to tell how stable it will be long term.

@matsuzine oh yeah, I do need to try Fedora, and find out what all the atomic hype is about
@matsuzine seems like the atomic spins don't have live CDs?!
@aburka I don't know, I'm using the regular workstation release. Zero issues for a week on my 2012 MBA.
