Odd, because with TLP I can actually reduce battery wear by setting limits. I don’t know how that makes OEM decisions complicated? They chose to not support Linux. Other companies like Framework and Lenovo implement Linux support through some select models and offer to install Ubuntu or Fedora. I understand having a zero software warranty for Linux, but no firmware/EC support? I remember owning a shitty (as in HP) HP Envy x360 laptop (RIP) that couldn’t even wake up from ACPI sleep on whatever kernel Mint was using at the time. I think it was at the time I heard a rumor they just weren’t implementing ACPI (open standard) properly.
