Linux laptop recommendation thread🐧💻 (lemmy.world)

I'm on the market to buy a new laptop, and Lemmy has successfully coaxed and goaded me to give Linux a serious try.

I've never used *nix as my personal OS.

Which hardware/laptop do you recommend? And which OS to pair it with for a Linux newbie?

I'm a software engineer, and quit my job to pursue an MSc in AI. So my uses will be:

programming
study
browsing lemmy
gaming

Oh man that's the same as me! I've been having all sorts of issues with reliability with mine so I was curious if it was different generations. I guess I'm unlucky?

I've had no issues that weren't caused by me, but I also have a pretty minimal setup.
