Sorry if this is not correct, I’m not on Apple, but I think ssh is built in. Maybe iPad is different. Here’s a link that may help https://www.servermania.com/kb/articles/ssh-mac

I think chromebooks are pretty locked down these days. The old ones you can unlock and install Linux on the bare metal are underpowered. 4g RAM and 64g storage typically. I use one as a touch screens for home Assistant and to run Pihole.
I would recommend a Think Pad with 4 cores and 8g RAM from eBay. Should be plenty for your use case and cheap. I have a 10 or 12 year old idea pad that I use about the same way you do and it still running great with PopOs.
