Good evening,

I'm trying to get serial data from a microcontroller board (Adafruit Feather 
RP2350) for debug purposes. My test code sends out an incrementing number every 
x seconds. If x == 1 second, it works no problem with any serial monitor (such 
as tio, minicom, or the Arduno IDE). However, if x >= 2.3 seconds, the data 
stops after a message or two. The serial port doesn't disconnect when the issue 
occurs, I only get disconnect alerts when I reset or physically unplug the 
board. I have tried multiple microcontroller boards from multiple brands, I've 
switched cables, USB ports, nothing works. This issue occurs on my Debian 12 
Framework 13 laptop and my partner's Debian 13 Thinkpad T480s, but not my 
Debian 10 server, my freshly reflashed Raspberry Pi 3, or my WIndows 10 PC. 
Those computers accept the data just fine. I know the code is running properly 
on the boards because I set the built in LED to flash every time a serial 
message is sent out. The common factor seems to be our laptops.

I have checked lsof /dev/ttyACM0 to rule out other software grabbing the serial 
port, I've checked udev and stty rules (well, my partner did) to the best of my 
(well, her) ability, everything is identical between the different computers 
serial settings. My partner updated her kernel to the latest version and it 
still occurs.

I'm out of ideas, and this issue has completely stopped my personal projects. 
Does anyone have any ideas what could be going wrong?
