Are the new thinkpads worth getting? (lemmygrad.ml)

So my laptop broke and I am looking for a new laptop. And I am going for lenovo thinkpads because I seen a lot of linux communities recommend older and used lenovo thinkpads, but I wonder if the new thinkpads are worth getting or I should stick with getting a used thinkpad.

I heard that in the newer ones the quality went down, especially the keyboard. Though Lenovo said they aim for their whole lineup to be repairable by 2025, which is a plus. The old ones are repairable and easily upgradeable
