I’ve been using mint for maybe 10 years now. I still run into frustrating shit.
Brother printer, well supported by Linux still likes to fight. Playing with brsane4 configs is a joy. Scanning feels like it is still the same all these years later. Cups is not cute.
So many little issues you just have to work through. Virtual box USB pass through; you need virtual box and also the addon pack and you have to add your local user to the vboxusers group, THEN it works.
May I please have proton drive? No? OK then.
I want to play some old emulated games, Lutris looks promisi–oh my god WHY?!
I’m used to it at this point, but expecting regular users to sudo apt install blah blah ain’t happening. Sure ain’t happening if they hold broken packages or get stuck where one dependency of a package is unresolvable
