Chromebooks can have Linux mode to switch to via crouton etc (I have, also on Windows 10), or dual boot (rare) or complete replacement of chromeOS with a distro which is increasing as many models’ updates are sunsetted by Google. Still, they sell as much as Macs & for much less with good specs. Many guides online for software & hardware tweak.

Several Linux distros are getting very tempting so many are switching from win & macos to them in millions. Big positive changes & developments coming too over the next few years. Anyone can test any distro online in the link below.

Daily news & improvements with pictures & videos by many on Reddit subs for each distro. I use several apps on Android and Windows to browse my Reddit subs, a proportion of which are about Linux /Distros. Reddit official Android app or just the browser on Windows is not good enough for me. Many of my fave subs are not mentioned in the bottom link.

Best overall Outliner for me, Notecase Pro, has versions on Windows Macos & 11 Linux distros:
