The remarkable 2 is entirely separable from the cloud bullshit. You have root SSH access out of the box and the community has several sync replacement options for most needs.
You can also install a terminal emulator and do all the usual linux CLI stuff like vim and SSH on a pleasant e-ink display.
The keyboard does have a good feel, but I hate the layout and it's a bit too fiddly.

Yeah, forget that. Switching the system over to Linux access kills most of its features and is hidden be hind scary screens, including loss of warranty. It is only your typically greenwashing like, “ we are open source” marketing badge. The community is also almost dead, probably because of that.
Keyboard is also unusable, it doesn’t even have enough characters for markdown.
