I really hope one day the Framework laptop will work with the major Linux Distributions with no asterisks. It will definitely require work on both Framework and the Distro maintainer's part, but it is getting better every month. Hopefully if Framework becomes more successful, they will have more say in the hardware manufacturing process, and they will be able to devote more resources to Linux compatibility. I have no need for a laptop now, but maybe a Framework will be in my future if this happens
