How do you define “technically competent?” I run Ubuntu on my servers and laptops but recently switched back to Windows on my desktop because I don’t like the direction Canonical is going with snapd in 20.04.
Problems? On two laptops (both Razer blades of different generations) the webcams were glitchy. Dell XPS 15 was fine. Most of the “problems” are known issues with Gnome that apply to any machine and could be addressed with a tiling window manager if I really cared. These were work laptops for my team. Really no major showstopper issues except for one failed release upgrade that required a wipe and reformat of the whole machine.
I might try Arch, as the rolling distro thing seems interesting, and not being forced into software updates is kind of important.
