Lemmy predicts: Chromebooks will become the new Thinkpads - Lemmy.zip

Maybe this is a hot take. However, a lot of the Chromebooks that were deployed by schools during covid are build like tanks while being super lightweight and having great battery life.

Many Chromebooks support coreboot these days so theoretically they have the potential to be more private and secure. Some of them are also arm which means that they are more efficient from an architecture perspective. Edit: I like how incredibly controversial this is. I have successfully split the votes
