I'm curious what setup you have to do?
I do some customization of KDE on my desktop, but for my laptops it's always install and use without the need to setup anything.

    Which distros are you using on laptop? I have a gaming laptop, I've been procrastinating on the switch because I dont want to lose some things. I really enjoy the control software for the lights and fans that it came pre-installed with, for example

    If anything, Linux gives you far more control over those things and it's usually much easier to do than in Windows.

    I've been using Bazzite for gaming for over a year now and it's great. It is immutable though, so while you can do just about anything you can do in other distros, the process can be different.

    I've seen a lot of people suggesting CachyOS lately for gaming, if you want something that isn't immutable.

    I don't use my laptops for gaming, only casual web browsing and the occasional 3d print or code script.
    I have used fedora in the past but a failed update broke it, so I'm using cachyos now.
    The only issue I had with the laptop, is that it's recognized as a 2-in-1 and sometimes would switch to the tablet mode which disabled the keyboard. Either I found how to disable it or cachy doesn't have the issue.
