I never really see hardware lacking Linux support mentioned, which got me caught by surprise when a computer with a Broadcom network card couldn’t use the card. What other hardware don’t work with Linux?

    Yeah, it’s really hard to find WiFi 6 hardware with reliable Linux support (brostrend.com has good support). It used to be that things like sport watches required apps to configure and only Windows was supported but nowadays most will be configurable using Android. Most common hardware (cameras, card readers, external drives) use USB now so it’s hard to find something without support.
