On Mint, you troubleshoot the wifi antenna following a guide once and then you're done. On Bazzite you probably just needed to click to change to X11 instead of plain Plasma, on the login screen. I would bet money that you have an Nvidia GPU. Sometimes Nvidia breaks the drivers support on Wayland. They intentionally neglect it in order to keep your kind of mentality around.

On Windows, MS is going to eventually fix the workarounds so you can't update your computer anymore.

All AMD setup

Funny how people are downvoting when all I've done is specified that no, it can't be justified by the hardware I'm using.
