As someone who used to be a huge Thinkpad fan/user, the Thinkpad brand is dead.
I liked Thinkpads because of trackpoint, linux support, quality builds. 2/3 of those are gone. Linux support is still there, but even the higher end builds have shotty quality at this point. I wanted a quality tool to do quality work.
I switched to mac with the arm conversion. Quality builds with Unix support. Once Aasahi is fully functional, the world will be complete.
