Some legit complaints for sure.

Network manager pissed me off so much that I stopped using it. I recommend just shutting it off. All it seems to do is run the bash commands for you. Might as well just run them yourself.

Same with burning ISO's, it's easier to just use command line tools. The most dead reliable USB ISO burner I've used is the DD command. I've used it to burn all sorts of crazy stuff that windows refused to write.

I haven't found the command-line-fu yet(and haven't spent much time looking) to scan, save, and auto-connect to various wifi networks, and to handle my Verizon LTE 4g card. I did hunt down the scan command once but I didn't use it enough to remember what it was. something to do with ilwifi iirc.

Haven't tried DD as an ISO to CD burner...will give it a shot.

You can only DD a bootable ISO to USB if it's been created as a hybrid ISO image. The syslinux package includes an isohybrid[1] command to convert existing non-compliant ISOs to hybrid ISOs that can boot via USB.

DD is good for USB but I wouldn't use on optical disks because it doesn't support burnfree aka if the buffer empties it will toast the disl
