Indeed, "good" doesn't matter if the OS is a pain to use. The Driver support issues are essentially a theological war between FOSS ideals, and mystery OEM binaries. Most of the linux kernel code is still the driver modules, and board support packages. The desktop options have always been a mess of forks and bodged applets to make it useful. Ubuntu balances the purity of Debian with practical user experience (we could all write a book about UEFI shenanigans.) RedHat focuses more on hardened server use-cases. Is it worse than Win11 ? depends what you are doing, and what people consider is the low bar for messing with users. =3
