Is the Linux support not there yet? How close is it?

  It's the hardware that's the problem, not Linux support. Simply, the hardware manufacturers don't make fanless, thin, light, performant, power efficient laptops.

    What about fanless chromebooks?
    • chickenzzzzu 2y ago
      Yup that's a good start! It proves that a company other than apple can do something fanless. Probably they're plastic-y, but they are thin, light, and fanless. Power efficiency and performance are likely not good, but, at least google doesn't deliberately obfuscate their hardware like Apple does. Instead, they just let everything that's not ChromeOS fester, since they're trying to make money. But anyone who wants to start a business selling Alpine on Chromebooks can ;)
