I’m in the same boat and use the same MBP.
The MBP is by default already booting into Debian and its so much better than macOS. Every time I go back, it’s a nightmare.
My best bet (after looking around a lot) is the newest Lenovo x1 Carbon.

Honestly, under Linux, I'm using i3wm[2] as a Window Manager and Emacs (with evil-mode) for mostly everything else. Everything is accessible with shortcuts. I don't miss macOS for those and not for a whole lot of other things. The only thing I haven't found a better (that's subjective, of course) alternative, yet, is HDR photography editing.
