Article Summary:
Framework is a new startup that makes super-repairable and recyclable laptops: https://frame.work

I’m planning to install Fedora on a new Framework laptop next week. I could maybe write an article about the experience, encouraging Linux use on new super sustainable laptops?

Article Description:

Title: “Sustainable Computing Meets Open Source: Installing Fedora on the Framework Laptop”

In an age where sustainability and eco-consciousness are more than just buzzwords, Framework has emerged as a revolutionary player in the tech market with their super-repairable and recyclable laptops. But how does this newcomer fare when paired with the power of open-source operating systems like Fedora? Join us as we dive deep into the experience of merging environmental responsibility with the flexibility of Linux. We’ll navigate the installation process, evaluate hardware compatibility, and measure performance benchmarks. This article not only aims to highlight the merits of the Framework laptop but also hopes to inspire more users to embrace the synergy between sustainable technology and open-source software. Explore the future of ethical computing with us!

@nadimk How has your experience with you Framework laptop gone? Any update on your article?

@rlengland Planning to write the article this week! Sorry for the delay.

@rlengland Please rest assured that the article is coming.

:smile: there is another Slimbook article in the pipeline. As a fellow Framework owner we should not let them get ahead of us, eh? :smile:

@nadimk Any update on this article?

I'd love to know if there are any updates on this too, as I just found this issue out and we already have a social media post about Fedora on the Framework laptop on the pipeline.

It'd be great for both of them to be released together so we could point the post to it and I can reuse the artwork I already did for it for the article's banner.

@nadimk Is this article still on your "to-do" list?

How is your Framework laptop working out? Have you had a chance to work on this article?

Just a sidenote: Beside Thinkpads, we run some Framework laptops on our company.

If you are interested in some bugs (maybe for some kind of "some issues with older models", feel free to ping me (sadly, the experience is not that smooth as one would expect, especially the 12th-generation Intel version of the Framework Laptop 13 has strange CPU clocking (e.g. getting all cores down to 400MHz and so on), I can ask for a list a common Fedora user might be interested in :-D. We really want to love Framework, but sometimes it is though to do so :-D. Or maybe this is an article of it's own?

I can also ask If he wants to donate some kind of article about the good sides like intended if @nadimk does not find the time to finish it.

@nadimk should we move this article to the "Stalled" category? It will be there if/when you or someone else chooses to pick it up again but the editors will stop bugging you about it.

Let us know your thoughts.

Thank you.
