I need a cheap laptop, I plan on installing linux on it (I'll try gentoo probably), and need it only for programming using vim, downloading stuff, and probably some shitposting. What do you suggest? Should I give in to the Thinkpad meme?

Get any of these:
ASUS Chromebook C201
Lenovo ThinkPad X60/X60s
Lenovo ThinkPad X60 Tablet
Lenovo ThinkPad T60 (some exceptions)
Lenovo ThinkPad X200
Lenovo ThinkPad R400
Lenovo ThinkPad T400
Lenovo ThinkPad T500
Lenovo ThinkPad W500
Apple MacBook1,1
Apple MacBook2,1
All of these can run libreboot but personally I suggest x200 or t500

Give into the ThinkPad meme but realise that beyond /g/'s autism, some of the ThinkPads with the new keyboard are actually good. Depends how cheap we're talking but I went down the route of getting a newer T series and replacing the screen with a FHD IPS panel.

T60, T61, T61S, X200, X201, X220, X230. that's mostly it for ThinkPads could look into hp elitebooks and dell latitudes
