Which laptop did you buy if you don't mind sharing?

Decided on this:

Still had some issues under Linux / NixOS a couple of weeks ago (hardware-wise everything worked; but specific programs, esp. Librewolf, will randomly start eating CPU and battery out of nowhere, with what looks like noops. Haven't investigated further, yet.

I really wanted to like that laptop but the screen is so incredibly glossy that unless you're in a totally dark room it becomes a mirror.

I think it's a matter of preference. Haven't noticed the screen being a mirror yet, but then again I feel like any even mildly matte screen looks like it's being viewed through a veil...

I am a bit worried/curious about how the oled will deal with my very static waybars though, lol
