Recommendations for Linux laptops in 2026? probably gonna stick with x86want to build little programs, but it’s okay if it isn’t great for building LLVM. though ideally not slower than my 2019 Intel MacBook Pro…okay with not playing high-end games, but would kind of like the option to play middle-level games (I don't expect this to be especially limiting these days)might still want to edit videos sometimes95% of the time it's plugged in anyway, but 5% of the time I’m trying to use it on a train or airplane, so, yes, laptopweight matters, I have bad shouldersscreen size also matters, under 14" is uncomfortably small. my current laptop is 16"ideally can run a 5K display at 2x resolution (I actually run at 4.5K today, 5K is a little small and 4K@2x is a little cramped)should last at least 4 years, preferably closer to 8, with minimal maintenance needed
