I've been lucky. The Fedora 43 box is an old Dell with a 4th gen Intel. 
Fedora hung onto 6.17.x and I was surprised to see it rolling out 6.18.x 
before the 44 release tentatively in April.

The Arch box is a Lenovo T480, again not cutting edge. I haven't seen 
problems with either. The laptop sometimes gets in a strange state but I 
think that is from the sleep/suspend getting its wires crossed. 

What problems are you seeing with 6.18?
