So there are some linux laptop companies that make dedicated linux laptops. See Purism and Tuxedo. They are very compatible and customizable, but I would recommend taking a look at Tuxedo because they have a much wider range of devices. Purism is like if Apple was a pro-consumer company. Their devices are all 100% libre, but are quite expensive.

Does this give you any increased sense of security as a non-american?

By this list, I like endeavor(it’s wallpapers go hard as shit), alpine, centos(watch dogs!!1!), and “Athena OS”(distrowatch random)

I agree that it’s not a big deal, but there still should be an option in my opinion. It can be a lifesaver to be able to search on older devices.

Thanks for the advice, but this was sollved already, I removed the SSD and the USB booted, so I wiped the SSD and put a GPT partition table on it. Then, I could boot and install.

I just changed my Firefox version to non-ESR to fix this, because newer versions had better(and automatic) wayland support

Thanks for the advice, I had to use non-ESR Firefox to get it working.

Pretty happy with this one, didn’t pay enough attention to the top right.

Yeah I’ll plug it into my computer and edit the grub settings. Terrible that the USB drive just doesn’t boot with an SSD inside, even though I manually selected the USB from the boot menu. That made me break my water seal and this device lost its IP rating 🙃. Thanks very much for your help however, your affirmation about the unplugging the SSD was was very helpful.
