Just bought a Framework laptop, I have been looking to move onto Linux for its efficiency for a while now. Suggestions for long time windows user was Mint gives the most "windows like" feeling.

So far I have encountered so many problems. Out of the box, it installs, system boots, great. However after a few minutes it freezes. So I looked for solutions and found the Ctrl Alt F2 and the restart display manager trick for this kind of issue. However it only fixes it temporarily. So I turned to gpt and it recommended that I use the mint on Wayland login option, since my system is really new, the Wayland option seems to have actually fixed my freeze problem, but created another strange problem. The keyboard I'm using is German and I have set it to German when it first asked me. After logingin with Wayland, it somehow decided it will do international English and that's it.

So many strange problems with no obvious solutions, the settings doesn't seem to have a keyboard layout setting? And when I change the language it just does nothing.

Really hope after the initial kink there will be some quality use time. I like the minimalistic feel, but currently that's costing me hours just to set it up to let me type in my correct keyboard.
