I had Fedora with the surface-linux kernel running for a while and at some point an update broke everything, including the touch pad.

What’s your point exactly? Besides telling me I shouldn’t use AVM hardware?

I’m not using AVM products, as they don’t fit my requirements (e.g. network segregation). Ubiquiti makes decent prosumer hardware with their Unifi line and I’m quite happy with their offerings.

An AVM user asked for potential use cases that FritzBoxes aren’t covering and I provided one.

network segregation. setting up vnets and rulesets for guests, iot or dmz and deploy them site-wide to all switches.

I’m using VSCode+OpenSCAD, FreeCad and OrcaSlicer (or BambuStudio if you just have a Bambulab printer) on my Linux box.

You can use the same tools on Windows and Mac btw, so no change in your work flow if you ever need to switch devices.
