Im not sure I understand the meme but I hate my system76 and looking for the true Linux Laptop..
get a framework. I cannot recommend it enough, I've had mine six months and it's been an absolute dream. (other than the touchpad breaking out of nowhere a week ago,, but they've already replaced it free of charge so that's not such a big deal imo)
The meme asserts that people saying "system76 enjoyers got dropped" are in fact the people that got dropped, because system76 is great.
Sorry, I think I'm lacking context here. What is the problem with system76? A cursory search for problems with system76 tells me there are some Nvidia driver problems, but that's surely not unique, right?
I don't have experience with their hardware but I've been dailying pop os for about five years and have generally had no problems.
Framework or Tuxedo Laptops
Think I will roll with Framework next. But also looking to max the frames out need the best mobile amd gpu which maybe in the Asus only? Probably their Linux support sucks..
If you care about upgradability and replacable parts the Framework is awesome, I love mine so far. But you can get a laptop with better parts for cheaper otherwise, so it's probably worth just finding something that just has a compatible architecture if that aspect of the Framework isn't a major thing for you. But also I'm typing this after drinking half a bottle of wine so honestly just ignore this entire comment, I don't want the pressure of you making a financial decision based on this. Ok bye.
don't get an asus. they've got terrible Linux support and their vapor chambers are designed to fail after a year and a half of ownership causing cooling to drastically decline in quality
my previous laptop was a tuxedo.
Was not very happy with it. (build quality not very good and the hardware support was not as 100% linux compatible as they claim).
At least their support is very good
meow! :3
