I’m using Pop!Os (preinstalled) with a sys76 laptop. Works great (can even game) battery life is terrible (though it looks fantastic and can drive a 32 inch high dpi external)

I can switch to built in Intel video for better battery but it requires a reboot. I see this as a stopgap. My home machine has an amd video.

It's definitely sub-optimal needing to reboot.

I only need the NVIDIA graphics every so often on my laptop though, so it's fine for me.

On desktop I've had no issues.
