Those of you who use Linux on a laptop, which laptop do you use? I've been thinking of buying a new laptop to replace my current ageing macbook and would love to run Linux on it.

ThinkPad

And System76, Clevo, Tuxedo, Framework, Dell XPS, business lineups et al.

Personally I want to try and push for an ARM/RISC-V laptop and keep x86 by my side in the future. ARM is just so far ahead in power efficiency terms, it is not even a joke. And there is almost nothing Wine and a Windows VM on Linux does not let me do.

My next laptop that will bridge the gap is surely going to have AMD instead of the disgusting joke that is Intel.
