You should switch to rolling release memes, yours are outdated.
Please get this bad boy working well on rolling release, then:

This isn't a Linux compatibility issue. You bought a device where the manufacturer told you in advance that a driver for the built-in wifi module doesn't exist yet. It's a product at the development stage.
So just follow the manufacturer's recommendation from the product page: use a wifi dongle for now and pat yourself on the back for being an early adopter.
Having the device, I already tether the wifi. But it is indeed a compatibility issue: the old kernel drivers for the chip were janky and it’s doubtful how well they even worked the time. The code is apparently such a hot mess that the people who were working on it have stopped making progress. There is now skepticism that it will ever be fully functional.
Have some respect for the classics
Yeah, you're too young to remember the glory days 😂.
I'm old enough but it's not the case anymore.
