Fedora should run just fine on that thing

    Why do you think that? Last I heard these Arm laptops have all sorts of problems, and they apparently also have boot lockers.

    This is what Google has to say about it:

    Running Linux on the Acer Aspire Go 15 (AG15-Q31P)—which features the ARM-based Qualcomm Snapdragon C processor—presents significant hurdles. Because Snapdragon ARM chips require specialized upstream kernel support, device trees, and signed drivers for components like the Adreno GPU and Wi-Fi, out-of-the-box mainline Linux compatibility for this specific entry-tier ARM platform is currently experimental and incomplete.

    Edit:
    To the Idiots downvoting because I show the AI result, but have nothing to offer on the issue themselves. 🤡 🤢

    This thread on reddit says the same thing, although there are disagreements:
    https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/1nrva4o/are_qualcomm_snapdragon_supported_on_linux/

    But clearly not solid info that would make me risk buying a device that may or may not work.
    Pick your poison.

    Edit PS:
    I also don't see why Fedora would run better than other distros? Maybe they have an excellent Arm team IDK?

    It's consistent with what I've read other places, there's a reddit thread saying almost exactly the same.
    Claiming it's like asking your dog is a crazy strawman by you and pure idiocy. And you show nothing to expose any inaccuracy in the Goggle response. In short you are wasting my time and I will now block you because you are just annoying.
