I’m thinking of getting a laptop to run Linux on. I’ve heard Lenovo is generally well-supported (particularly models that come with Linux pre-installed).

Is there any particular hardware I should watch out for / avoid, and / or prefer? Any other brands / models people would particularly recommend?

    Honestly most laptops should work out of the box now. Based on good experiences people had with Gentoo and the WinMax 2 (2022), I preordered a WinMax 2 (2023) and will be moving my current desktop (TigerLake Engineering Sample Franken computer) to home server use. Had I not gone this route, I would have probably gone either the StarLabs Starbook or the FrameWork route.
