    I came here to say this. One guy’s experience using some proprietary shit box (the Dell) shouldn’t be representative of everyone’s experience. It’s not fair that Linux developers have to reverse engineer these drivers then get shit on for it down the road.

      I run Manjaro on a 2010ish Dell XPS 15 without a single issue. Haven’t used it in a while, because I got a 2012 MBP that was lighter to carry and put Kubuntu on that, but last time I used the XPS it was fine.

      This is less an issue of proprietary hardware and more user competence IMO
