Not like any of the other laptop makers are better for ports
Hell, my not old thinkpad has an Ethernet port
I think only the t14 series has ethernet port. All other models don't have it. Keyboard is pretty shit on the t14 too
and yet, there it is with an ethernet port
Other makers give you options.
You want ports? Buy the model with the ports.
Weird, I seem to have 3 USB-A, 2 USB-C, and one Ethernet, HDMI and mini-display port each on mine that isn't an apple. I just included connectivity in my search when I was looking.
Also check out framework laptops if you want to just pick exactly what ports you have. If they were around when I got mine, that's what I'd have gotten.
