You could consider Dell XPS 13 - slim, portable, you can get it with Ubuntu from Dell (or just flash whatever). The 12th gen one has a better keyboard - I don't like the touch keyboard on the 13th gen.

Yep I saw the one with the touchbar... why make the same mistake as Apple?
I'll have a look! Not sure if Intel ME can be easily disabled on those

Ordering from Dell it's possible to opt out from vPro (in theory).
This customer, however, ordered "no out of band" and still got it. Not sure if Dell can be trusted
