I also found this out with my cheapy Soundcore bt earphones on Mint. The volume also goes much further than on W10, almost like they had an artificial limiter unlocked. The sync is also perfect from the start.Found out this evening that my AirPods Pro 2 work exceptionally well on Linux (CachyOS in this case) compared to my Windows 11 installation. No lag when playing audio, super stable connection. Sweet.
Have you tried kludging it with fprintd/fingwit? I must admit I have had mixed success over the years (by mixed I mean it has either just worked or not worked at all, reason being manufacturers don't bother with Linux support).I upgraded to Mint 22.2 hoped my laptop fingerprint reader would work for log in. Sadly it's not supported. Still solid for my needs.

TernFS has been in development for over three years and for over the past year is being used by all of the XTX machine learning efforts. XTX Markets reports that "to this day, we haven't lost a single byte" on TernFS.
Sounds interesting. I've mainly been looking at ZFS recently but will keep my eye on this.

I was looking into FreeBSD because ZFS is natively supported there and seems to be much easier than using it on Linux.Lots of people seem to like ZFSBootMenu, but when i looked at what was involved i bottled out.![]()
With the release of GNOME 49 the desktop environment has increased its dependency on the systemd project. As a result, GNOME requires more work and patching to get it to run on operating systems which do not run systemd. As one Artix developer stated: "Some of you have probably seen the blog post a few months ago about how GNOME is more strongly depending on systemd. The changes mentioned there have landed into the latest stable versions of the mentioned software (GNOME 49) and do affect us. In particular, the main culprit is the removal of the non-systemd fallback code in gnome-session. This makes it currently impossible to launch gnome-shell/mutter on a non-systemd system. A fairly straightforward patch of using elogind, like what was previously done, no longer works either.
Since we don't have the time or interest to write a new non-systemd codepath for gnome-session, this means that all support for gnome-based desktops has to be dropped. In particular, the affected packages would be gnome-session, gnome-shell, mutter, and gnome-settings-daemon. For now, the old versions are still in the repos but because there is so much intertwining between other GTK/GNOME packages, there is no guarantee they actually work and will later be removed from our repos." This change will exclude GNOME from running on the approximately 90 Linux distributions which do not run systemd by default, unless the packages are patched to work with alternative dependencies.
