Nowadays a lot of hardware works very well on Linux, the main approach of this vendors is not the compatibility (has guaranteed but as you say in a thinkpad you have the same compatibility), the approach is about a free software (or mostly free) firmware, and in this case, free and secure implementation for the firmware an all secureboor chain
it’s well vs perfectly; ESPECIALLY when it comes to battery life.
i’ve been buying linux laptops for the last few years and the battery life between a dell or thinkpad vs system76 or tuxedo is significant thanks to core/libre boots. i’m looking forward to their risc-v offerings.
the hard/soft support alone makes linux smooth sailing, just like any mac (and the price tag is almost the same). i’ve been a linux user since 2002 and it’s nice having paid developers to fall back on who always know more than i do since it’s literally their job.
yeah, €1500 for an i7 with 32 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD is just a bit too high compared to a ThinkPad that runs linux pretty well. :D
