x1 (gen c5) is amazing as well. After almost a decade as a macbook user, i'm impressed by it & back to linux! :)

I have one of those from work and running NixOS in it, everything works perfectly and I love the machine.

Btw if thinking of a X1C for Linux use, I'd skip the latest for now due to them changing how the sleep works and it having issues even with Windows (losing battery while sleeping). The fifth model is great though, if you're not looking for the 8th gen CPU and HDR screen.

C6 definitely has too many drawbacks, but, I'd love to have the little camera cover. I'll have to 3d print one...

Unfortunately they don't pop up very often as refurbs, and they tend to be overpriced when they do.
