Where is Linux not working well in your daily usage? Share your pain points as of 2026, so we can respectfully discuss (libretechni.ca)

Thought I'd create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people's pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

              It's annoying to set up hibernate on Kubuntu and I can't seem to figure out how to add it to the UI.
i really miss the login UI of W11, just select pin, fingerprint, fido key or password. On kubuntu I have to unplug the fido key so it fails if I want to use my password. The UI also has no indication of wether I am entering the pin for the fido key or my linux password.

When fingerprint or whatever is setup as a PAM module for login it can decrypt your home folder, so you can do the initial login with it
