I think it does show the typical experience. Its not a good test of linux systems, but it does show an accurate experience for a normal person trying out Linux on their existing hardware. These are exactly the problems unexperienced will run into. You see it all the time in help posts on linux communities. How we fix it, I’m not sure, but we shouldn’t deny that this is what its like for most people casually testing it out.

I bought a small travel controller from them and it’s probably my most reliable controller. I definitely need to get a full size one from them at some point.
