Probably a tonal issue on my part. Not intentional. But it's happened before. Combined with the fact that despite my advice being sound. It's far from an ideal solution for a number of people. Not everyone can buy online, and many don't have the interest or aptitude to procure and assemble themselves. And it sucks that there isn't a better option. Brick and mortars etc providing an option.
I have run Linux on systems from every major SI. Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer, IBM etc. Tower wise these days it's fairly foolproof outside network or graphics interfaces. Realtek is a mess. And Nvidia IS getting better, but still shits the bed badly when I try to use it with Wayland and the software I want to use. Which is getting to be issue enough that I'm de-nvidifying where possible till Nvidia gets it together.
Laptops are a special hell though. Malfunctioning/non functioning screen controls, IO, and peripherals that can't be replaced etc. The next laptop I buy will be one built with Linux compatibility in mind. I'm getting to the point myself that while I can chase down and fix issues. I would rather it just fully worked. Replacing the m.2 network interfaces on systems that allow it is great and all. But at my age my eyesight is getting to where attaching the antenna leads is very challenging.
Haha, you remind me of a brief period in 2014-ish when I tried to use Linux on an AMD laptop. It was a complete nightmare, nothing even remotely similar to my current issues with SuSE Tumbleweed. Fans going haywire, backlight issues, overheating. Gosh.
I've heard good things about the System76 laptops, it's definitely enticing. Though I'm also interested in those modular Framework laptops, but they're not available in my country.
I like the concept of framework as well. Though my understanding is they are generally compatible with Linux. But that isn't a design goal with them. Still supposed to be a pleasant experience though. System 76 at least has Linux as a first class citizen. Even updating the BIOS from inside Linux. But either way it will be a much better experience than buying something like a Dell laptop or similar.
Okay, let's test this theory. Recommend me a reasonable mouse and keyboard, that have working Linux support, and I can buy them at a reasonable store. Do the same with a webcam.
