Most Lenovo Thinkpads WiFis should work out of the box with FreeBSD.
A USB distributions like NomadBSD ( https://www.nomadbsd.org/ ) can be used to test compatibility without installing the OS.
Also, for HW compatibility: https://bsd-hardware.info/
Also framework laptops work (mostly): https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/freebsd-on-framework
Even if true, not having great support for laptops doesn't mean "no one uses FreeBSD". Obviously it's supported by essentially all server hardware and is used there, as well as many routers and the Playstation.
I use it on the desktop as daily driver. It's great.
It's a desktop (a NUC) though so I don't use WiFi. I really hate laptops.
