My experience is the opposite. I love Linux, but my MacOS work laptop is just so much better.
For as long as I've used Linux it freezes randomly. This happens on all hardware configurations I've ever owned. If I don't regularly save my work, I will end up losing it.
These days I also can't leave my desktop PC suspended for too long. At some point the fans start spinning at max. No reason why.
As for my 13 inch M1 laptop, I don't even know if it has fans. I've never heard them even if I'm in a zoom meeting, sharing my screen, while compiling half the world.
Also in Linux I can't really use Zoom screen sharing. Seems to leek memory and after a while it crashes. Of course that's not Linux fault.
On my Linux machine it takes significant effort to use my AirPod's microphone.
And that's not even talking about battery life on Linux laptops.
It's always interesting how we all have such completely different experiences with our hardware and software.
Seems like you mostly have issues with Wayland. What distro are you running?
For me Zoom screen sharing works fine with Wayland, if everything runs Wayland, including the browser. Xwayland apps can't "see" Wayland apps or the desktop.
I assume the Zoom client may be Electron/Xwayland, correct?
The X to Wayland transition is mostly over soon. Probably with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
