I’m also in the “cursed hardware” camp. Whenever the support for my OS runs out, I usually need to try 2 or 3 distros to find one where everything works out of the box. It’s a bit annoying, but doable on a rainy afternoon.

    I don't know why, one laptop I tried years ago to use linux on had issues with so many distros. Mint the touch pad didn't work, debian the wifi, manjaro the screen was funky. But one worked pergectly fine, Parrot, another debian distro which was weird because debian and mint didn't work. And all the isos were current builds
