This is exactly it.
I do like MacOS more than Ubuntu (which I also use), and lately, customizability of Ubuntu has gone down too (As an old Mac-user, I want a menu bar, I actively dislike menus on each window) and the M1/M1X look real sweet compared to intel.
But Apple is the most anti-consumer company there is and I consider buying a Framework to give them a boost and hopefully purchase a laptop that will not need a full replacement for years. The ecological footprint of electronics is bad enough as it is, no need to reward companies that want you to throw away whole computers after 3y.
