I’m sporting the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 with AMD Ryzen 7 4800U.

Amazing value for money (< €900) and everything worked out of the box immediately when I bought it new 3 years ago using the latest Linux kernel (via Arch). Had a MacBook Pro before and it blows my mind how much cheaper this set-up is, and how much more I enjoy using it because of decent window managers.

In general, if you go for a distro like Debian or Ubuntu I don’t think you can go wrong with a Lenovo that’s been out for a few years.



I have it's cheaper cousin, the IdeaPad S540 with Ryzen 4800U - running Fedora 37 and it works great.


IdeaPad 3 (AMD Ryzen 5 5500U) on Alpine Linux 3.17 here.
