FW 16 on Ubuntu LTS has worked flawlessly for me except the battery drain on sleep is really bad (20% per 24 hours). No crashes or freezes or resume from sleep failures as I've experienced on other laptops with no vendor support.

Sleep kind of sucks on the original 11th gen hardware. They pushed out a bios update that broke S3 sleep, so now all you've got is the s2idle version, which the kernel is only OK at. Your laptop bag might heat up. S3 breaking isn't really their fault, Intel deprecated it. Still annoying though. I've heard the Chromebook version and other newer gens have better sleep support.
Other than that, it's great. NixOS runs just fine, even the fingerprint reader works, which has been rare for Linux
I've been running KDE-debian for 1.5 years on my amd framework with no issues (fingerprint sensor worked after installing some software). Can't say anything for nixos though.
