sudo pacman -Syu. -> Secure boot config broken, OS won't boot (Manjaro this summer with some Intel firmware update).
No HDMI sound on nvidia for some distros until recently.
Getting the Wifi to work ootb on Mint is not always easy..

That's your problem right there. EndeavourOS is also a beginner-friendly Arch derivative but less breaky.

I definitely feel you on that one, it's just the luck of the draw sometimes... If you haven't considered it, in some laptops the wifi module is a replacable mPCIe or m2 module and if that's the case, more compatible replacements shouldn't be hard to find for cheap or salvaged from broken laptops.
