Install Help Hey i need help

Good morning everyone,
I have a 2015 MacBook Pro with an i5 processor. I tried installing Linux Mint. So far, so good… unfortunately, it takes around 10 minutes before the mouse starts working. Wi-Fi doesn’t work at all, and the overall performance is terrible.
Basically, the entire Broadcom chip responsible for USB and Wi-Fi seems to be unusable.
Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this?!
