I don't know enough yet whether to care about the CSAM issue, but I recently switched away from apple for a more ergonomic-but-portable setup where I can use a computer without wearing eyeglasses and save my neck from looking down without dealing with secondary keyboards, second monitors, etc.
This led to finding a combination of:
- An intel tablet - specifically HP makes one called the Elite X2 G4 (now G8) which has a 3k2k 13" display. Running Ubuntu which isn't perfect but tolerable - I keep a list of workflows replacements (primarily from mac to linux) here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148zTJUwfVv9xfDcpSoH3mF-c4vqV3CqyEWXuqaAiXoA/edit?usp=sharing https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148zTJUwfVv9xfDcpSoH3...
- A 'tiny tower stand', which allows one to prop the tablet close to the face. Other stands (e.g. roost) don't enable this. It's been sold out this year but hoping they come back.
- A nutype f1 keyboard (wired usb-c or wireless), and an apple trackpad (wired lightning or wireless). The combination still fits within the footprint of the tablet, eventually want to make a case for it for easy carry.
Again the motivation is finding something more ergonomic and portable enough to use at another desk. Do I recommend it? Depends on your intentions and time available. Mine are just around exploring ergonomics.
