Her previous Linux videos were good, but this one just felt like a long rant.

I haven't watched the video, but the video is titled perfect Linux laptop and she's going on a rant?? Like... A positive rant about how good it is?
Exuberance even.
No, she was complaining about things like the fans continually running when updating the bios. That happens because the temperature based fan control is switched off. It lives in the bios you're upgrading.
...or general Linux things which are just a bit different to what she's used to. As designed, with sound reasoning, just different.
Thanks. I also noticed she kept pointing out things I thought were positives as negatives like, too many things to choose from, having to troubleshoot to install an OS that you want, paying extra (for the freedom), the name Laptop 13, etc. but I get it, she's trying to set expectations for people who are kind of new-ish to the scene.
I just need them to deliver to Japan, haha.
That usually happens when you don’t understand the product.
It seemed that she didn't do a good research. Many comments were correcting things mentioned in the video.
What a weird video.
