I feel like the fact that Ubuntu used to be the recommended starting distro is coming to bite people because they just install Ubuntu without realizing that most people don’t really recommend starting with it anymore and install it, then complain

They complain about dual-booting. Somehow Linux is always expected to make this perfect when sitting next to an OS (Windows) that is not expected to, and often, does terrible things in that realm. Linux did not delete my boot entries on some updates, for example. It also doesn't mount my linux drives. nor is it seemingly expected to. macOS ... just doesn't do dualbooting, period.
Nathan had his own bizarre problems where his CachyOS refused to acknowledge his mouse clicks. He was also hit with option paralysis, trying to choose between four bootloaders and thirteen desktop environments....They intentionally installed a distro that is about tweaks and customization, and that's a bad thing?
Almost all the complaints here are about hardware. Which ... yeah, I get. That's also something that Linux is somewhat hamstringed in fixing.
