Not in my experience. We have 6 of them running Ubuntu. Constant heating/throttling problems. A persistent USB power problem. Frequent kernel oopses.

Coming from a Mac, stuff that just works there is a constant struggle on the Dell XPS 13. It is pretty though.

My experience with Linux drivers has always been dicey... do they also have lots of issues running Windows? Heat and throttling problems are, in my experience, endemic to Macbooks too.
