Anyway, on my old Ubuntu laptop:
 
   Linux mlsasus 5.15.0-97-generic #107~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 9

The Fedora box is up to 6.7.4-200 and the Ubuntu one is 6.5.0-21. Fedora
updates the kernel frequently but I haven't noticed any difference. I
would have to dig up the change logs to see what they tinkered with.

I'm on the Fedora laptop now. I got chased out of my secondary computer room
by a guest (my wife's sister). So now I'm downstairs at the dining room
table.

The Fedora laptop is currently running on 6.7.7-200 kernel. (I'm typing this
on the laptop, but currently I'm logged into my main desktop upstairs using
No Machine.) When I login into Fedora it says when I have updates (notice
appears on the top-right corner) so I just run 'sudo dnf update' — it works
fine.

Basically Linux is Linux — especially when you the same Desktop on both
distributions (Cinnamon in my case). My main desktop computer is still
running Linux Mint 20.3 and its kernel is 5.4.0-173.
