Not against #Fedora, #Linux, or even @UniversalBlue at all, but I don't recommend using Linux on laptops at all.

On desktops? Yeah, it works great. On Laptop, however, I've never got someone who said that his laptops works flawlessly. There is always a catch: webcams, ports, trackpad, speakers, suspend/hibernation.

I'll always recommend a #MacBook instead, over any Linux laptop that is not 100% certified to work.

@darkghosthunter @UniversalBlue been running stock #Debian on laptops for years. Except for a 30 year old Dell which had a proprietary sound card that only worked in Windows 95/98, everything has always worked. I can't remember the last bit of hardware that didn't work out of the box.

Can't really comment on macOS, other than to say I'm running Debian on some old Macs that Apple no longer supports.

My in-laws are all running #Linux without issue.

@drajt @UniversalBlue May be is just me recommending Linux on cheap craptops, I mean laptops.

@darkghosthunter @UniversalBlue I don't deny that some laptops have screwy hardware and come with special builds, such that stock Windows won't work either, but I've not dealt with any myself.

Certainly Dell, HP, Asus, Acer and a couple of generic Chinese designs have all worked perfectly for me in the last 25 years. I've obviously not tried everything, or indeed that many devices from the vendors I've mentioned, but everything just works in my experience.

@drajt @UniversalBlue Maybe their models are different in Latam, only explanation I could have on why I always encounter problems while poeple on the first world do not.

@darkghosthunter @UniversalBlue I wouldn't put it past some companies to cut corners and ship poor hardware if they can get away with it. I couldn't comment on what firms do in other countries.

Having said that, China and India seem to have a booming Linux community, so if firms are playing fast and loose with the standards I would have expected it to be more visible.

Lowest end hardware can be unreliable irrespective of the OS you put on it. See recent bit-flip error stats.
