Addendum for folks who might have favourited/bookmarked this, contains mainly additions to the excellent comments by others (credit where it is due):
Slimbook is actually from Spain, they are the guys who offer the KDE laptop, they donate a part of the price to KDE: https://kde.slimbook.es/
No idea how they get away with only 1 year of warranty in the EU though.
Laptop on Linux (https://laptopwithlinux.com/linux-laptops/) looks really good, they are based in the Netherlands. They sell Clevo barebones without additional branding, interesting IMO. They offer a liquid metal by Thermal Grizzly as a paid upgrade instead of Arctic MX-4. Pricy at 47€ but going from 8.5 W/mK to 73 W/mK should be worth it for people who dislike loud laptops.
