Nothing, and so they do. Dell will sell you an XPS 13 with Ubuntu installed. Lenovo will let you select Ubuntu or fedora in some models. System76 and Tuxedo will sell you a bunch of laptops only with Linux. Starlabs sells Linux laptops. KDE sells a laptop. Purism sells Linux laptops.

Did you just assume no one sells a Linux laptop?

Now there are two of them!

I am loving void so much, it has made Linux fun again!

Good luck in your search!

There are Nvidia drivers and steam in the nonfree repo (it’s a one command to get access to it), they are easy to install. I haven’t tried any gaming but don’t see why it wouldn’t be just as good as any other distro.

Give void a try, setup was pretty easy for a more diy style distro.

Which is exactly why I will never do 2. Provide a device if you want control. I will not give you the ability to wipe my personal phone remotely just to check my work email on it.

I mean they already made one, queue lotr meme about second breakfast…

Nothing Microsoft ever does should be trusted or relied upon. They are a bad actor who always operates in bad faith and should be treated as such.
