What's still weird for me is Bluetooth audio hardware. After hours of working perfectly it gets choppy or jittery or it sounds like a second layer of hiss where intensity follows the volume of the audio. It's either restart the audio stack or the OS. I can't find a cause.
Also on my last Fedora install on an HP EliteBook some random PC speaker alarm would sound and I couldn't for the life of me find the perp.
Yes, Apple's walled garden is pedantic as hell, but the main UI stuff just works.
Slackware 15 was the jump from basically nonexistent bluetooth support unless you really put it in yourself, to right out of the box everything that I've tried so far working just fine.
I was getting really close to looking for an alternative for a bit over it as I got more and more bluetooth accessories, but am quite pleased that things finally caught up.
Can't speak to Fedora, but am surprised that it may be behind Slackware, if only because Slackware is predominantly a one man project...
Macs have their own set of wireless issues. If you add a Logitech radio receiver or high i/o usb device like a cardreader or docking station, bluetooth and WiFi connections can become unstable.
