Am I alone on the Bluetooth problem ?

I am running Mint Debian with Cinnamon, on and off I got connection problem with bluetooth headset, some times it connects some times it doesn't, even worst some times the PC half freezes I can't even reboot. I thought it was my Thinkpad problem, but I can connect again after reboot, I don't know if I am alone on this and the fix to it tnx !

Try another bluetooth headset. I have a skull candy external wireless bluetooth speaker that is pretty worn out.
It can be hit or miss on connect sometimes. My newer one has no problems connecting or working.

Mint is pretty dumbed down for bluetooth usage. Not like my antiX install at all where I have to turn on bluetooth in conman.
Then insert bluetooth startup in services .
Before Blueman will even open up for me.
