I have mint dual booted on my laptop with Win 11. I find myself using Win11 more.

Idk why, linux mint doesn't feel finished to me:

120hz won't work with my dock (works fine in ubuntu and w11)
Touchpad scrolling is insanely quick and almost unusable
My mouse jitters allover, accelleration or something seems wrong.
Can't seem to set different governors depending on battery or power.
Fingerprint doesn't have a driver (works in Ubuntu ok though).
Scaling 125% seems janky, everything is blurry as shit

It does work mostly ok though and is quick, but it doesn't feel polished. Ubuntu was great but fuck snap packages.

If you're using synaptics as the touchpad manager, there is a config element to control the speed of the scroll

VertScrollDelta and HorizScrollDelta (integer) configures the speed of scrolling, it is a bit counter-intuitive because higher values produce greater precision and thus slower scrolling. Negative values cause natural scrolling like in macOS.
