Not this old trope again.
I haven’t had WiFi and sleep issues with Linux for at least a decade (I don’t use Bluetooth on laptops so can’t comment there). And I do use random laptops, including MBPs.
People seem to hold on to the same old arguments about Linux that were true back when XP was released but things have unsurprisingly moved on since then.
- lal 5y agoHaven't had any Bluetooth issues in the better part of a decade on any laptop running Linux, and I've been using Bluetooth headphones as my main audio output for the majority of that time, so I'd think I would have.

- mishafb 5y agoThe real problem is with desktops, on laptops it's more standardized (most have Intel wireless).
