I mean, you’re asking why anyone would buy a pickup truck when a sports car is so much faster and holds the same number of people. I’ve got both, they’re different devices.
To answer more directly, though - the Framework is both a hobby and a market signal for me. I wanted a repairable laptop with an OS I can control and I don’t particularly care about the rough edges that come with that. Call it masochism, but that’s pretty much what any hobby looks like in the modern age of plenty.
- sneak 4y agoThese are both sports cars; they are both sub-15", sub-4K 8-ish core all flash notebooks ("ultrabooks", in the parlance). They run the exact same OS. It's the exact same product category. One is slow, chonky, and inefficient, however, for basically the same price. They sell a v6 automatic transmission ICE Mustang, too.
