as a mac & linux user since 2002 and i had a time machine to do it all over again but correctly this time; i would go with a linux first vendor like system76 or tuxedo or any other vendor that uses 100% open source hard/software. (ie coreboot/libreboot).
linux can work on almost all hardware (including mac) but you’re mileage is going to vary a lot and only the linux first vendors can give you an experience that rivals mac and windows.

the trend is an accident enabled by lack of vigilance on part of the ruling class with it comes to social media; i expect it reverse once they figure out how to make social media just as captured as legacy media
is xi santa now?
youtube, facebook, et al. deplatforms at a SIGNIFICANTLY higher rate than cable news or any legacy media does.
use the internet: totally
search porn: also true, but dramatically less than men do.
and intentionally so to keep the “undesirables” out.
the descendants of those nazis truly believe in the PR and they’ve doubled down; the woman whose computer i had to fix had prop 8 signs and a crucifix on her desk.
i decided to quit because i realized that the software i was supposed to be troubleshooting was intended to make missiles more aerodynamic and nothing to do with space.
