It seems to be about 50/50 right now. I dual boot with Windows due to being in a dual degree program that requires both Linux and Windows. Sometimes I'll switch between them multiple times a day.
If I boot up and it's there, then I don't have to worry about it at all. It will work flawlessly until the next boot at least.
If I boot up and it's not there, I just restart and it may or may not be there next time.
I'm using a built-in wifi card on my motherboard. It is an AC 9560. I had a Mint install before and it always worked with every boot. But I wanted to switch to Ubuntu due to other problems I was having that Ubuntu solved.
I also use a Kali Live USB to try and learn more about security and the card works every time.
Based on my research, it should be supported natively.

Based on some stuff I found around googling, this is the output when running Output is below. I couldn't find anything wrong but I'm very, very noobish about network cards and drivers, etc.

I've obviously also updated and upgraded. This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 19.04 from 2 days ago.
