I tried it but I can’t tolerate it crashing every time I close and reopen the laptop
Trust me, we* are trying, but T2’s quite annoying and it’s borderline impossible to get logs about why it’s crashing when it comes up from sleep/suspend. (*: t2linux, which I’m part of.)

Use it as a harp?
If it doesn’t work check for viruses, defragment your balls, and satanise your beads. Maybe you just need to download more orbs?
Pulls out thinkpad with coreboot Not today assholes
Corebooted Thinkpads are pretty ancient.
But 3mdeb, Novacustom, Starlabs, System76… well and Chromebooks exist.
Also no idea about the new ARM laptops.
