    Alternatively,

    Installed POP OS. Connect the Nintendo switch to my laptop using MTP. Double click the file folder. Crashes.

    Decide to just reset to see if it would fix it. The laptop loops at the authentication screen infinitely. Used a PC to transfer files instead.

    Reformat and install Fedora Workstation since Lenovo ships with it. Installed Anydesk and Rustdesk and Wayland is extremely laggy and the hot keys do not transfer to the remote computer.

    I think my next step is to install an xorg OS.

      I love how every comment tells you to use a different distro lol. Don’t you guys see problem? You cant ask people to change their distro for every issue they stumble upon.

        I see exactly one(1) comment that suggests trying a different distro.

        One comment is suggesting using a game streaming application (Moonlight).

        One comment is suggesting using the RDP server that comes with Fedora (which jaschen306 stated they are using).

        One comment is yours.

        One comment is saying it’s probably a hardware issue.

        And finally, one comment is suggesting a gaming-focused Linux distro - but specifically calling out that it’s if they’re looking for a gaming distro.

        Admittedly I have Hexbear and Lemmygrad blocked, so I might be missing other comments.

          My bad, my PTSD kicked in as I read some names that I assumed were other distros. Its way too common when troubleshooting Linux to see people sugesting a whole other distro as a definitive solution, only to have other problems different to the one you’re trying to fix.
