Bluetooth on linux continues to suck however - it sucks a bit on windows too but it has been unusable on a few of my linux laptops.

Know where I've had troubles with Bluetooth on Linux? Discord! Stupid Discord keeps forgetting my Bluetooth headset lately. Saddest thing about that? I've heard my Windows using friends cursing Discord over the exact same issue on their Windows 10 and 11 rigs. (Leads me to believe it's not entirely Bluetooth's fault every single time, but sometimes badly written software doing screwy things that confuse the Bluetooth somewhere along the way.)

In my case it's only been Discord doin' this, while everything else that uses the same headset has no troubles with it at all.

My favorite bluetooth issue is with MacOS. On my M1 Mac Mini, my Logitech MX keys and MX Master 3 mouse are not recognized after a reboot. So I have to attach a corded keyboard to my Mini to log in. Because when it goes to sleep after a reboot, it does not wake up for the logitech kit. Which is explicitly supporting MacOS.

Its not just linux where bluetooth sucks.

I opened a ticket with Apple on this, gave them my notes, and they still haven't done anything about this.

Bluetooth on linux sucks. As it does on MacOS. And windows.
