I recently bought an LG Gram 17" for use as a Linux developer laptop. So far, I'm absolutely delighted with it: huge 2560x1600 screen, fast, silent, hardly weighs a thing, decent battery life, Thunderbolt 4 and everything works in Ubuntu 22.04, without special drivers. Definitely worth a look.
I can’t do an off-center keyboard. I wish there was a Linux laptop with really good build quality and a centered keyboard. For now, my crummy old XPS will do.
