M1 Air or M2 Air, running Asahi Linux. I am posting this using my M1 Air, running Fedora Asahi. > As far as phones - your alternative is to buy an Android phone with an operating system by an ad company that is also pushing AI just as hard. I use Fairphone 4 with Ubuntu Touch.

As far as the Fairphone - poor battery life, bulky, poor camera, and the IP rating of 55 for water? Well at least it runs Linux.
