I would recommend a Thinkpad. I have an E14, you can get them for under 800 Bucks. The Linux support is awesome ,under Fedora everything works out of the box.

I can recommend Jerboa on Android. Used it since the start and never had problems with it (and its lightweight).

Yeah it sucks but at least they have a good Linux AppImage (sadly no BSD). Their Android client is also fine and is on F-Droid.

I am using Tuta and am very happy with it. I like the feature where you can send encrypted Mails to anyone and they’re unlocked via a password (i dont know if others have it). Important for me at least is, that they’re based in germany.

You can use the Terminal or something like AnythingLLM. It has a GUI and you can import pictures and Websites.

I run the 32b Version on my 6700xt with an R9 3700x using ollama. It runs well but it gets a bit slower on complex problems. I once ran an 70b Llama model, but it took a long time to finish.

Nah its normal, been hoping since 6 years. I keep an external hard drive with important info, so i can nuke my system without worry.

Like others have said, Bazzite is a good option.The auto driver install is amazing. Had no problems with Bazzite, not like PopOs(some Driver issues with older NVDIA GPU). Only thing is the ISO’s are really large (>6Gb).
