Another counterpoint: my at-home install of Debian on a 2022 XPS 15 is absolutely fantastic. WiFi is solid and sleep works perfectly. (I don't think I have hibernation enabled though.) I don't use a second monitor, but projectors have always worked fine for me.
Power management at first wasn't great, but simply installing Intel PowerTOP and having it apply all its suggestions on each boot made it easily the most power-conservative laptop I've ever owned. (The OLED screen I think helps with that.)
Whereas my work MacBook Pro (2021 model maybe?) had decent power management up until macOS 12 junked up GPU switching, making typing horribly laggy unless I disabled GPU switching entirely -- but since that forced the external GPU, battery life took a nosedive.
