Windows is better than Linux

Because I can attend/Linux Google Meet with Bluetooth Headphone over a 2.4Ghz WiFi, on Linux I can't. It cuts down internet speed by 95% or even compleltly

I've been using Linux approx 2 yrs for Web Development. I really like it. The OS is superb. I can't ever go back to Windows for development. After a lot of googling, searching, trying I came to the conclusion that both Wifi & Bluetooth use 2.4 Ghz. That's the problem

Windows is better for reliability because the same Bluetooth headphone works fine over the same 2.4 Ghz wifi on the same laptop with Windows dual boot.

I even tried multiple distros: Ubuntu 22.04, PoP Os, Fedora, OPen Suse TW
Laptop: Acer Extensa 15
Headphone: Realme Buds Wireless 3

This isn't a Linux in general problem but a hardware compatibility issue with Linux (eg. they both work for me). Try creating some forum threads and see if someone can work it out.

Wifi & Bluetooth use 2.4 Ghz. That's the problem

They're basically designed to coexist, and WiFi mostly uses 5 GHz nowadays anyway, so that shouldn't be the problem.
