Just giggled as my last meme mentioned trouble with displays and appropriately, a large chunk of the replies were “well MY displays work just fine!” (And charmingly, many were thoughts of things to check, other distros etc. It’s a very kind community, though that may also be the fediverse.)
Haha! Yes. I have done similar.
I had an issue I was trying to fix, and I was blaming Linux. Until my life partner pointed out that they have the same issue with their nearly identical hardware on Windows. Haha.
