Framework
Which OS to go with it?
If you want "Apple-like" look and feel, KDE Neon, Ubuntu, or Pop_OS! are good first Linux distros to start with.
I am running Kubuntu on mine
I think Fedora is pretty great. It offers a lot of packages and ships updates quickly, has good performance, doesn't include much crap, is pretty good security-wise and lets you choose between many desktop environments. There are even more stable and secure immutable versions like Fedora Silverblue, Kinoite and others, along with forks of it like Universal Blue and the distros that are based on it like Bazzite, Aurora, Bluefin or Secureblue.
Framework only officially supports Fedora and Ubuntu. And Ubuntu is the only distro that I will tell you not to use so...Fedora.
Use Gnome DE to get a Mac-like UI.
Linux distro of your choice
You can fix it instead of buying a new one, it's not like Apple
