I too have always been interested in such devices, and am also now in the Linux world. (My default distro is Manjaro with xfce). I'm currently considering an Astro Slide Or a Galago Pro, but availability of both devices is spotty. Everything you've said suggests that something like the Galago would serve me better.

The fix is open-source firmware, like Coreboot or LinuxBoot. Incumbent PC-compatible vendors aren't too interested, but there's more than enough room at the table for offshore and onshore vendors to use open firmware as a feature. Google, Purism, and System76 are some of the vendors doing this. Source: almost 2 years ago

Questions: Is the Galago Pro by System 76 overkill for my needs and desires for the foreseeable 10 years to come? What about the Jupiter 14" by Juno Computers? Source: almost 3 years ago
Of course there are. There are also some open source alternatives, but I've not really looked into them very much. Source: about 3 years ago
