Linux laptop recommendation thread🐧💻
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

fine print: oh yea also framework
Which ThinkPad?
We use about seven ThinkPad T16 and P16s professionally with zero issues. Can recommend
Edit: the AMD versions, those generally work better with Linux
Rocking E15 Gen2 with AMD CPU for about 3 years now, can't complain besides the fucking fingerprint reader having proprietary drivers (thus not working on Linux).
So, the E model line is a nice work laptop with basically no GPU performance whatsoever.
yes
I've been rocking a first gen X1 Yoga (6th gen intel) for like 5-6 years, three or so of those years I've been using Pop!_OS and its been pretty good. I suspect that a 6th gen intel may be a little lacking for your uses, just to say that most ThinkPads will be good.
