I just bought a Lenovo laptop and wiped Windows off it / installed Linux for the first time. As largely a newcomer to Linux, it was very smooth. Had some issues getting the wifi to work, but once that got resolved, everything has been super smooth. I must admit there is a bit of a learning curve, i didn’t fully appreciate the differences between the various distributions. Shame that an indie company who is actively selling linux machines, can’t have them working off the bat. That’s unacceptable

Which Lenovo model did you buy?

The biggest issues I've had with this on Lenovo laptops have been uefi based. Of course the Lenovo uefi isn't exactly great regardless of your OS choice. System76 is really the only option making both the hardware and maintaining their own Linux distro but then you're still left with a Linux distro...
