speaking of Framework. did anything turn out of their "big tent" approach as they were saying it? was there any continuation of that thing?
for those who have no idea, there was some controversy around Framework when they were collaborating with omarchy and its founder of some specific beliefs
This is the actual reason I won't buy one. I'm willing to pay extra for a product that goes against the current and offers repairability and modularity. But the way they handled that situation makes me not want to see them ever again. I'll stick to used Thinkpads.
