In the market for something cheap, but decent quality. Right now, just have a Chromebook, but thinking I want a "proper" computer. Always used to be a Windows person, but not opposed to Apple, but dont care about the status symbol of it.

Not opposed to new, either, but seems like used or refurbished will be a better deal.

I could imagine installing Linux or something, but not immediately, so it needs to just work out of the box.

USB-C would also be nice. Something smaller and lite weight, but it doesn't have to extremely so.

Also in the market for a new phone. Will probably get an old Pixel, but am curious would you tech nerds recommend these days.

    psst. You can run Linux on a MacBook.

    Edit: nevermind, you said M1, I'm being dumb. Though I thought that maybe Linus was daily driving an M1 MacBook.

      I am eagerly awaiting better than beta-quality fruition of the Asahi Linux project.
