Back in my college days, I first used a T60 (not ultrabook) then moved to an x220 (nearing ultrabook). The X220 was perfect, removable battery, all day battery, good build quality, perfect for linux. I rocked mint with DWM for the 2nd half of my uni days.
I’ve been on Mastadon for a while, and have liked it for content that was less mainstream on Twitter. Gave a better way to get more frequent content from folks I wanted to follow over Reddit. Glad to see Lemmy finally gain momentum due to the Reddit drama.
Needs to be Linux? Xps. Unix? MacBook of choice.
