ITT: Second hand Lenovo Thinkpad X240 with Coreboot and Arch Linux
Is Lenovo really any better?
It is not. There is no ethical alternative. There is no universally superior operating system. Make your own choices based on your own needs and don't listen to fanbois.
Eh, I like my work issued Ryzen 5000 Thinkpad more than I’d like to admit but the M series MacBooks are so much better it’s not funny. Everything you do on one is pretty much instant, the screen is gorgeous, it’s silent, and the battery lasts forever. The hardware is definitely several grades above the Lenovo.
The OS, you’re right, use what you like. Windows and macOS both have advantages and disadvantages.
