Will I ever get Bluetooth to work on this laptop in Linux

I have had this laptop for a few years now and Bluetooth has always worked in Windows, never in Linux.
I’ve tried various distros , kernels, firmware updates, etc nothing seems to work.
I have given up.
Is this hardware so complicated it can’t be figured out?
The answers I always get is get an external device or something to that effect.
It is not a show stopper and I love the laptop other than this little issue.
Sorry just venting I guess.
