It's mostly an old notion that just won't die. Especially in the years after its initial release (2004) it was just a disastrous experience sometimes with cracking noises, misconfigured sinks (or outright missing), crashes and - if I still remember one of my first Linux experiences with Ubuntu 8.04 right - the sudden decision to repeat the current audio buffer at maximum volume.

Ever since I came back to Linux on Desktop around 2017 I didn't had any bigger issues with Pulse either. Ever since Pipewire became the default stuff just works, no issues whatsoever.
