The first thing I've done for the last few releases was immediately search the release log for "bluetooth". I agree with you. Bluetooth works, but just barely, and it feels like it's getting worse. Somewhere between 5.8 and 5.9 reconnecting became incredibly flaky for me (XPS 9300). Headphones will pair and connect fine the first time, but then completely fail to reconnect properly if I turn them off or walk out of range. Sometimes I can connect to them again, but they don't get registered in pulseaudio, even after killing and restarting it. Sometimes they will connect, then immediately disconnect again 5 seconds later (rinse and repeat until removed and repaired) Sometimes they fail to connect entirely. I end up consistently removing the device, restarting the bluetooth service, and then repairing fresh. In which case they work until the next disconnect. --- It's hardly the end of the world, and it's a little amazing that my biggest complaint about linux desktop these days is flaky bluetooth, but it's certainly annoying.
