It seems utterly normal to me?
Yes, the power drain is sleep mode is abnormal - I've read that the USB ports are to blame, and it will be fixed in upcoming firmware.
I like it less than my Macbook, but more than my Thinkpad. Find it just a bit too sensitive, so I'm always accidentally dragging things when scrolling.
Yes, I can see all of that.
I don't have trouble with it, but I do know what you mean when you say it :-)
2. AFAICT you can't change the scroll speed on Fedora (not sure if that's Framework's fault but still super annoying)
1. Change from s2idle to deep. The tradeoff is slower wakeup times but less power drain when sleeping.
2. Sleep then hibernate. After a certain amount of time (maybe 2hrs), the system will go into hibernation from s2idle. This is nice because there's almost no power drain when the system goes into hibernation, but you can have quick wakeup times when the system is still in s2idle. The tradeoff being, it can be a bit of work to implement and you can't have secure boot/kernel lockdown.

I agree the keyboard is excellent. But the trackpad is crappy -- the one blight on this otherwise good laptop, IMO.
Actually, the second issue I have with is the power drain when in sleep mode. Apparently this is fixed on Windows but not Linux. You experience that as well?
