The usual 'just get an old thinkpad' advice still applies IMO.

Better driver support, a real keyboard, and a functioning ecosystem of Linux distros.

God yes, get a Thinkpad instead. I'm not making the mistake of trying to daily drive a Linux-powered Chromebook ever again.

Do chromeos thinkpads or windows thinkpads have better coreboot/libreboot support, on average?

FYI, you can buy Thinkpads that are "refurbished" with Coreboot: https://minifree.org/

Buying them funds maintenance of Coreboot.
