It would be helpful if you specify the exact distro you consider "vanilla linux install". If it was some rolling release, then ok, that's expected. But I highly doubt you will have any issues like that on a stable distro, like RHEL or Debian. Also, Linux administration requires skills, so... :-D

I've had issues with Arch, Ubuntu, Ubuntu server, Debian, Mint, Fedora, Kali and raspberry pi OS, across about as many machines.

I'm using Mint at the moment, and it's locked up twice more since my last comment. In fairness I've narrows this issue down to some software crashing that's taking the system down with it. But can't help but feel if it was crashing on Windows, at least I'd be able to get into task manager, or it would just close, rather than needing to reboot.

And now after yet another crash I've lost an entire days work that was previously saved. Seriously tempted to switch back to windows.
