There exist a few linux hardware vendors (laptops, pcs, phones) out there. Is the community using them?

What led you to getting a mac?

Work issued, I was all thinkpads before, but It lasted 10 years... and that's a hell of a selling point.

Grew to appreciate the smooth interface. It's not Linux, but it is BSD I grew up on BSD. So I'm very comfortable with Macs. Get Brew running, a bunch of docker containers, it's a full-fledged environment. Get some QEMU VMs going and it does everything.
