I am looking to build an alternative laptop to AMD/Intel. I want to limit how much I support them and protect my privacy.
I have thought about getting the Framework Laptop 13 chasis with expansion cards and use RISC V for the main board.
Debian is in the lead for the OS.
Are there any other alternatives that could be recommended that may be even better?
So far Snapdragon is one A LOT of people are recommending. I wanted something highly up-gradable which is why I considered Framework. Since I’ve heard about battery life issues and…questionable associates, I will pass on Framework. The RISC V was at the top of my list for boards but after hearing how much extra work it is going to be, I think I will pass on it too.
Right now my top contenders are:
Which ones are the most up-gradable/customizeable? I want something that just might be the last full laptop I will have to buy (best case scenario).
