I mean we’ve got !thinkpad and the last time I was on r/thinkpads there were lots of users as well. Also, lots of people who are on Linux just use ThinkPads, it’s just the way things are. Chances are if you ask for ThinkPad help in a linux community, they can probably help you. I’ve recently joined irc and even found some channels dedicated to ThinkPads
I can’t find an active thinkpad centric community on here I am just going to post here. My Thinkpad T480s, 16 GB RAM, 238 GB SSD is randomly shutting off while at like 50%. When I try to open it back up it always is dead and I have to connect charger to boot it up again. Why is this happening? Is it battery issue? It complains...
So again, the Lemmy verse is still really confusing and finding the right communities for the right post. This sub seems like they would definitely know about this though...
My use case sounds similar to yours, so I’d second the T480. I got one 7-8 months ago, and it’s been great so far. Only thing I changed was I put in a backlit keyboard.
I don’t know any general laptop communities. At leasr not ones with any activity, but !thinkpad seems relatively active.
Good price laptops with good build quality and lightweight? [US]
Can anyone recommend cheap laptops that have good build quality and see lightweight?...

I hope this post qualifies, but laptop on last legs, planning for a replacement...
