So I like coding in linux too. I absolutely prefer it over anything else; but, lately my ubuntu distro has not been able to wake up from suspend so I force a reboot when I get back to my computer after a prolonged break. And I was pretty intentional about not futzing around with X11 and third-party graphics with this distribution specifically to avoid this kind of thing happening and have a long-term Linux OS.

I also recently got a bluetooth adapter and found out I simply cannot turn on bluetooth. When I was younger, I had more patience to hack around with things until they work exactly as I like, but I'm surprised that I'm still encountering issues like these in 2021 on a desktop-focused OS.

I wish other OSes followed the unix philosophy more. I wish I could separate the windowing manager from the desktop in OS X, and have more extensive customization options over everything. It'd be nice if Windows had as nice of a filesystem organization story as any linux distro.
