I didn't get much traction over on bsky with this, but I'm in the market for a new #laptop and I'm migrating from Mac to #Linux. I'd like something with a 15" at least 2K screen and good #battery_life. I'm leaning to #system76 and the Pangolin, but the battery life isn't all that great. The Lemur looks great, but it's 14" and FHD. I'm also up in the air about a dedicated GPU, so any advice there is welcome.

So, #desktop_linux Mastodon friends, what's out there?
