+1 the system76 recommendation. A few years ago I sold my System76 Bonobo WS because I got a desktop gifted to me, but then a few weeks later I started to miss the laptop. My only complaints with it were the fan noise and the 4K display. It didn't play nice with my multi-monitor setup, where one screen was 1080p and the laptop was 4K. But the laptop itself was very powerful, great for Docker/K8s/emulation and a workhorse that never let me down.
