There’s been a proposal for Fedora Linux to become a new Fedora immutable variant and now it’s been approved by the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo) to happen for the Fedora 39 cycle.

Most people using it are pretty hardcore users, actually. Immutable Linux is not quite ready for primetime IMO.
If you haven’t chosen your laptop yet, I’d recommend checking out the Red Hat Hardware Compatibility List, and trying to buy from there. Otherwise, your new laptop could be a mixed bag in terms of how well it works.
In terms of distros, I personally think Fedora Linux is the best of all worlds. You get a quick straightforward install, relatively new packages, it has a big user base which helps for support, it has a pretty vanilla GNOME installation, and bugs get fixed quick, because a ton of Red Hat engineers are using it.
