Buy a machine with first class Linux support the same way you'd buy a machine with first class macOS support if you want to use macOS but don't want the hackint

Buy a machine with first class Linux support the same way you'd buy a machine with first class macOS support if you want to use macOS but don't want the hackintosh experience. System76, for example, ships laptops with custom power management daemons that tune things for you automatically, and provide you with power saving/performance profile buttons in the system tray if you want control. GNOME ships with a similar power management daemon that handles things automatically, as well. I'm also in the "I don't want to tweak my computer" camp, and in my experience, modern Linux is much more sane and stable than it was in the XFree86 days.
