MODERATORS
None of the options I gave are exclusive to laptops.
You were literally responded by suggesting they use their laptop's HID, then suggested a wired mouse which they said they didn't have, then suggested using the console which the install process doesn't advertise as a possibility to the user.
Poor UX is a bug, it needs to be updated.
I don't disagree with that at all. I was responding specifically to where you said "if only laptop users could", and I was just stating that the options I presented did not have a laptop as a prerequisite in order to use said options. It still needs fixing as you said, I just don't agree with OP's swift dismissal of the entire distro as a non-starter for the reason stated.
