@steal_your_face I’ve been running Linux on the #Framework 11th gen Intel version for a few years and it’s been great so far. The aluminum chassis feels quite solid and the battery life is enough to get me through the day most of the time. I’m just waiting for the Batch 1 #Ryzen mainboards to ship so I can tack my Intel board to the basement wall as a media server.
I just realized that no one has the ryzen boards until q4 of this year 🤦♂️
How do you like the laptop overall? Is it pretty portable? Which distro are you using?
@steal_your_face yeah it’s exceedingly portable and surprisingly light, but I think my favorite thing about the hardware is the 3:2 aspect ratio, especially for writing.
I’ve mostly been on #EndeavourOS for the past few years.
I'm in the exact same boat as @[email protected] except I've been running pop!_OS and I'm Ryzen batch 4. I love everything about the framework, and looking forward to expected better battery with Ryzen. I'm glad they switched to the matte displays, that was a negative but I put a film on and that's been great.
How’re you liking pop os on it?
I like Pop on it quite a bit. There are some easy guides to get the fingerprint sensor working but everything else works out of the box. Linux in general needs a few tweaks (via tlp) to get better sleep states. I am looking forward to Ryzen though, I have pretty high hopes for it!
