I just setup Gentoo on a Lenovo laptop last week. It was the least painful process for a Linux laptop of my entire career. Everything just works. Even sleep and the fingerprint sensor for sudo. LLM tuis replaced Google entirely.
I can't even say there was any pain whatsoever. The experience is now more akin to MacOS circa 10.6.x years.
Driver support for that particular Lenovo is 100%. You just recompile. The issue is more to do with the CPU not being as good as say an AMD AI Max or an M4.

Was it a Snapdragon laptop? Because if it wasn't, then it has nothing to do with the OPs question.
