Printer are worse. try to get a decade old brother to print more than a half page without completely freezing and needing a hard restart. driver is unmaintained unfortunately.
on Windows the printer works perfect though. which makes me quite unhappy :|
wifi on the other hand is not a problem i can remember. even on a 15 year old laptop, the AUR has a driver that it extracts from a ancient .deb and then patches it to make it work with modern kernels. lovely.
It's the newer Wi-Fi chips that have issues, those for which drivers aren't yet released. There always seems to be a year-long delay between the next gen laptops being released and the wifi drivers for them.
What about cups, they have no driver for that printer there?
I have a LaserJet 1000, 20+ years old, only works Linux and Windows x86 π... so I just set up a peint server and shared it π€·.

Isn't the main problem that most of them are proprietary, so they can't be shipped automatically if you want to avoid shipping a distro with proprietary software?
