Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

    Fingerprint support is weird. The hardware works after installing a driver from Dell but I could never get it to work on both login and lock screens at the same time - I get one working, the other breaks. Also, even when it works the behavior is not consistent between those screens, and also requires mouse movement or key presses before the sensor responds which is annoying.

    Bluetooth support has some oddities, like the fact that some apps can properly swap my headset from “High Fidelity” and “Headset” codecs and others can’t. I’ve gotten used to doing it manually when necessary but it drove me crazy earlier on.

    rclone is awesome but I really wish it had a way to set auto-mounting or auto-syncing as part of the setup. Took me quite a few attempts to get it working as I wanted.
