Works great with Fedora 33 (tested with kernel 5.9)

After I bought a BT 5.0 USB adapter that didn't work with my Fedora Linux workstation, I decided to try this adapter, because it was advertised with Linux compatibility. I'm happy to report that it's out of the box on Fedora 33 with kernel 5.9. No complaints at all!

Pros

There's something to it

Cons

Some difficulties
