Your friendly local programmer, uni student and Spotify addict.
Yeah, there really isn’t any reason to go with one processor brand over the other. Since drivers and such aren’t a concern (like with GPUs) most people just pick whichever one has the most price-effective offering in the spec range they’re looking for.
Because my university’s network is cringe, I’m unfortunately forced to run everything on a VPS.
This comes with a financial cost, and I have to carefully ration my computing power, but it does have some upsides - enough that I honestly prefer it now.
I don’t have any technical answers for you, but I’m on GNOME Wayland and I’ve never had any issues like that.
