Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

Been on Linux only for a couple years now. My biggest complaint is how terrible the trackpad experience is. The upside is I have a pretty keyboard centric workflow (tiling window manager), so I dont have to use the trackpad too much, but wgeb I do its not a great experience.

Fwiw arch (BTW), with hyprland on a framework 13.

Install touchegg and add it to your startup scripts. It gives you an "apple magic trackpad" like touchpad experience.
