Between Framework at least trying to build an open ecosystem, there are very very few other options out there. Yes they can probably do better, still they are effectively the only decent open option (for me at least) at a reasonable price and quality.
Doesn't mean we shouldn't call them out though.
They've been called out. Boyhowdy have they been called out. You can't mention "Framework" on Mastodon without someone chiming in to tell you about all this and try and shame you into not considering a Framework machine. I think they have been sufficiently called out.
Given that there are multiple replies from people that had not been aware...
I wasn't aware, but I'm not that familiar with the Framework organization. All I knew was that their laptops are easily upgraded.
