Is it possible to install Linux on a Chromebook by completely demolishing ChromeOS?

I want to buy a Chromebook, completely demolish ChromeOS and install Fedora there.
chroots are uninteresting and not needed.
Why:
I was choosing a laptop for myself and came across high-quality cheap devices without a win key from Google with initially guaranteed compatibility with linux.
That's it! The question is, is it possible?

It all depends on whether the legacy bot works or whether the kernel or bootloader can be rewritten. In almost all non-Google Chromebooks, this can be done with great restrictions or not at all. Here is a good table in the arch wiki .
I chose and chose and in the end I took the original pixel from google, but it is far different in cost from most chromebooks ...
