I really like my new (used) ARM laptop #thinkpadx13s with Linux. A big step from my previous #pinebookpro in snappyness.
#opensuse and #ubuntu work really well. Ubuntu even has a no frills standard out of the box installer.

I recently bought a #thinkpadx13s and it is quite well supported by Linux. (I tried Ubuntu and opensuse)
If I wanted to spend that much money I probably would get a refurbished MacBook Air M1-2 with #asahi Linux.
AFAIK the current number of devices with somewhat working cameras is still short:
- #librem5
- #pinephone
- #pinephonepro
- #thinkpadx13s
However there was great progress to pave the way for more devices - and apparently the #pocophonef1 will be next, see https://fosstodon.org/@joelselvaraj/112621744555315631
So looking forward to what this cycle brings :)
Attached: 1 video Yay! Got the imx363 rear camera working in my Poco F1 (SDM845) running a near mainline kernel! 🎉 Here is a quick demo of Megapixels and Snapshot camera apps running at 1080p resolution. Full resolution of 4032 x 3024 is kind of buggy with only 2016 x 3024 pixels stretched into 4032 x 3024. Needs some work before wider use by community though. An important milestone for SDM845 devices nevertheless! 😇
#firefox #webrtc using #pipewire and #libcamera (with softwareISP) on a #thinkpadx13s - it finally works \o/
The required patches will also make things work for a bunch of #linuxmobile devices.
lieber arm drin als arm ab
@urusan lets see the upcoming Qualcomm devices. Waiting a few months this time could be a world of difference if things pan out.
Otherwise #ThinkPadX13s , Chromebooks (with various degrees of success), #pinebookpro , #mntreform. Pick your poison there.
While Apple isn't a company to encourage, @AsahiLinux is hands down one of the best projects to follow. Getting a second hand device is an option - just saying.
