What hardware are you using?
If you have the right hardware for Linux, everything just kind of works these days in my experience. Nvidia can be a pain, so I stick to AMD. WiFi also has to be the right chipset.
Codecs can also be an issue because some have restrictive licensing, but there are easy ways to handle that too.

It wasn’t hardware-related, but rather software-related, which is puzzling. The installer kept crashing for various reasons, and I ended up trying to install it multiple times over a couple of weekends. Once I did, I found out I can’t work on my plugins with Figma desktop because the port is fucky with the fonts, and I can’t put my laptop to sleep without breaking my wifi until I restart. That’s been a showstopper for now until I finish these projects. It’s taking too much time trying to get things to work.
