Comment on Ask HN: Does the Framework laptop stand the test of time?

Comments

Been using my Framework 13 since launch. It's definitely better than the MacBook I had before it. I have not had to repair it even once (vs 3 times in 3 years for the Mac).

The "repairability" doesn't really matter much when it doesn't break. Any CPU from the last 10 years should be good enough for me to just be coding in vim. Perhaps faster compilation speed for Rust but I mostly write Go anyways.

I'm hoping new parts will still be supported/available in 10 years when I'll actually consider upgrading anything.

The best thing about it is Linux support. I have friends who regularly get driver issues or whatever on other systems but that's never been a problem for me
