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.

I'm on openSUSE Tumbleweed using KDE Wayland

Sometimes my session will freeze up and I have to switch to tty and back to the GUI session to fix it.

I run a windows VM through winboat and it works well enough but it is particularly jank in regards to having multiple or even just 1 program open at times.

Every time I mount a veracrypt drive, baloorunner starts eating up my memory until I run out and I might have to hard reboot
