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 @darkghosthunter @UniversalBlue been only running debian testing on laptops as long as i have had laptops. (15 ish years?) Not really had any issues that i was aware of.
Have never gotten bleeding edge hardware tho, that may have something to do with it.
