People with framework laptops on linux (nixos?) what is your experience with them?
Have been keeping half an eye on framework laptops as a potential next daily driver as and when I'm ready for one.
Just wondering what people's experience of using them on linux has been, particularly nixos
I'm assuming all the drivers are in the kernel given the way the company is
Have been using a 2016 thinkpad for the past year or so and have had a decent experience with it, with the way lenovo have gone with their newer thinkpads it seems like framework is now the best for maintainability/upgradability
(not planning to upgrade in the immediate future as this machine is doing fine, but frameworks are a strong contender in my mind right now and I'm curious as to people's experience)

Have 16, FedoraKDE not nixOS though, no problems to report in my sector.
No issues with battery life or fan noise? That's what I'm hearing from others
No fan noise, battery could be better but could be worse, but no external GPU which probably exacerbates both.
I'm not planning on getting the GPU anyway, most of my work is done from a terminal and a browser in a lightweight window manager, as long as the integrated graphics can handle that it'll be fine
Oh for sure, it can handle 2160p video on the integrated, and a terminal and browser (with 16gb ram anyway), no problem. It'll stutter a bit if I am file transferring with all that though.
