18.10 isn't even supported by Dell.

  Awesome, a laptop with one-year OS support...

    It's not even an LTS release.

    Dell doesn't support non LTS (long term support) releases. The next LTS release of Ubuntu is 20.04.

      What does this mean? What sort of support did I get from Dell for 18.04? I had to download and install everything myself.

  That's not the point. The switching issue at least is present on 18.04 as well. Basically, ubuntu changed the mechnanism from bbswitch in 16.04 to a different one in 18.04. The 18.04 one is buggy and inferior at the moment.

    Yeah, I spent an hour trying to get Bumblebee to work, to no avail. Alas.
