A very interesting asks me about a recommendation for a with a super as a base to be able to reliably package their plugins for . What would you recommend? Maybe something like a or a or something more mainstream like a and probably running or ? They are completely new to but willing to go all in. ✨🌟

@amadeus I would recommend any Lenovo laptop (easy to obtain and familiar) and Linux Mint (great starting distro)

Thinkpad since only longtime Linux users think about buying Linux specific hardware.

@graves501 You think Linux specific hardware is less beginner-friendly?

@amadeus

No, rather that a Thinkpad can emulate the average Linux experience with all its quirks. HP or Acer laptops might even be too problematic lol

@graves501 Ah, I get it (and agree). 😊

fedora,

@amadeus here's a list of hardware that ships or supports Fedora. Framework is great and so is Slimbook, for which most of their laptops offer Fedora out of the box.
