I am debating on moving over full-time to Linux and picking up a laptop from https://puri.sm/ https://puri.sm/
the hardware and open drivers are the most annoying thing when finding a laptop for Linux it seems. Almost everyone uses terrible wireless hardware or does not fully support the highest resolution or something strange. I am hoping https://puri.sm/ https://puri.sm/ has that all figured out.
- rrggrr 8y agoPureOS was not a great experience for me and I'm using Ubuntu (budgie) now.
- digikata 8y agoHow is the hardware under Ubuntu? I've been eyeing up a Purism laptop as a successor for a Macbook Air that's getting a little long in the tooth.
- kernelcurry 8y agoHardware compatibility for Apple laptops is horrendous! I wish they would just open their drivers to the community at large! I would run *nix on an Apple Laptop no problem.
- digikata 8y agoWell on the Macbook Air, I'm running OSX, err macOS. Been running Mac on laptop and linux on desktop for a while now, but the last couple of iterations of both Macbook and macOS have been weak on the basics. Soo, I'm eyeing up the Purism laptops.
- kernelcurry 8y agoYeah, I would be running Gentoo so on their laptops. It just seems the hardware compatibility for these are WAY better than most on the market today
