make sure the hardware really works
Also make sure the software really works, one of the main issues with Linux adoption by hardware manufacturers is their lack of dedication to it. In Brazil, for example, most brands that ship with a Linux distro (except for DELL, which ships with Ubuntu) ship with basically digital waste (unmantained, poorly developed distros) just to make the hardware cheaper, because they know people will get it to just install a pirated copy of Windows in it.
Can we please, in the year of the lord and savior, stop linking to flatkill for once? They have been debunked at least 5 different times at this point, so let me link to a couple of them: https://orowith2os.gitlab.io/posts/Flatpak-an-insecurity-nightmare/

Some of your points aren't bad, just not up to date to what most of the ecosystem has been doing for a while now.
Nope, I'm not the developer, I just found it really interesting and decided to share
- Reason n.1: a stabler distro that doesn't lose when it comes to being up to date, as the equivalent to arch is rawhide
- Reason n.2: a better, less toxic community
- Reason n.3: Fedora is community-based, it is sponsored by RH but it does not dictate what the project does
- Reason n.4: fedora docs is really good (and getting better), the only documentation locked behind a login is RH's, fedora's always been open to read and to contribute
I could keep going.
They've basically been the biggest partner with Microsoft to try and launch an ARM ecosystem for Windows. The oldest ARM laptops were made by them AFAIK
with the recent development in NVK and Nouveau (and futurely Nova), you probably will relatively soon
as a 1050Ti owner (which still is more than enough for my usage), same
all the necessary things are already here on the linux side AFAIK the only thing left is a stable release of their drivers with support for it, which should come relatively soon
They are a video creator first and foremost, not a writer for a blog or a magazine. It's like demanding a janitor to make and serve you a meal just because they work in a kitchen.
If they are so misleading and inaccurate, then I'm all ears to why.
Again, I'm not against the project or the team, I just don't like the direction S76 went for their own thing, instead of improving other existing projects. Having a full Rust stack is potentially pretty great though, and I'm all in for what it might become in the future, but this attitude about even the slightest of criticism speaks volumes about the people working on it.
DaVinci Resolve is THE video editor on Linux. Unfortunately the libre apps for it don't get even close, to the point that even with all the limitations in the free and paid versions, it still is the best option.
Also shout out to Bitwig Studio, although I don't use it.
