1. Ubuntu 22.04 (granted it was upgraded a few times, but origianlly a 20.10 box), even with bredr set int he conf, wouldnt work with Airpods…

• pop_os does, but since its a dual boot, i have to re-pair them if i use it in another OS, since they share the bluetooth adapater.

2. Using an egpu has no hotplug. And you need something like egpu-switcher to manage the config. - github.com/hertg/egpu-switcher

• this also wont apply to pre-login stuff. You would need to copy that over to a different file there.
• this also wouldnt work if you had say…3 monitors and wanted to use 2 configs. In windows you can do that with super+P and swap between extend and only external etc.

3. My pop_os install wont recognize my logitech 720p USB camera thats like. Its a brand new install of 22.04.
4. Teams, even in the PWA, and other apps often dont respect the system defaults for sound/mic inputs. Especially if you have a few, which all laptops do since theres always shitty onboard speakers and mics.

There are all experiences of mine from this calendar year. I can work around them mostly. But my wife or others…no way. They would just chuck the PC at me and say “fix it”. These are all also things that work OOB on windows or MacOS.
