I use a ThinkPad X1 Nano (gen 9 I believe) with an intel CPU since it supports Thunderbolt, which I use to dock my laptop. I ended up on Fedora and am happy as can be. Everything works besides the 5G cellular modem, but I just use my phone as a hotspot. This was my first time purchasing a laptop that isn’t a MacBook, and I really like it! My favorite aspect is probably the keyboard, which I find a lot more enjoyable to type on than my MacBook for work. I purchased this laptop to pair with a nice desktop setup, so I wanted something lightweight (~2 lbs.) for traveling that just worked. I’m a software developer who primarily uses Firefox, kitty, and VS Code. I was concerned about the “just works” aspect before purchasing, but after some very slight initial tweaking, I find that it does just work and never gets in my way of productivity. Gnome Extensions made that minor tweaking much simpler than setting up an Arch environment. Overall, I’m extremely happy with this laptop and hope to use it for years to come.
