I just got a new Thinkpad Yoga from work. It came with Ubuntu pre-installed, but I installed Arch. I'm actually surprised this model has the option of Ubuntu when ordering. So far so good; now that I've got something newer, I'm trying out the current state of Wayland, and there's some issues there still with KDE and SDDM and such.
If it'd have been my own choice, I'd have gone for a Framework laptop, but that wasn't an option since we have a fixed supplier. Apparently replacing components such as the keyboard on these models require taking apart the whole thing and replacing half the shell, compared to typical, more traditional Thinkpad models. I've had to replace the keyboard twice on my old T-series Thinkpad, and I'm really not looking forward to do that on this Yoga model (and I think the Carbon also requires taking it apart).
