I'm pretty sure the previous poster and those continuing the argument about Framework laptops didn't read the article fully because shortlisting it as a potential upgrade among other options is no where near shilling.

Yes but it’s the only item on the list with a link and really shouldn’t be on the list at all. A laptop with a two hour battery is a long way from perfect. I’ve seen too many of these articles for this to be a coincidence. Pretty sure it’s a PR campaign or paid influencers.

It probably just has a link because it’s a relatively unknown brand, the author doesn’t need to link to Apple for people to know what a MacBook is. This level of paranoia about a niche laptop company is fascinating.

Well it wasn’t paranoia because hours later they released the 16” crowdfund so obviously it was a PR campaign and from the looks of the sales a very successful one. Assuming they aren’t creating false scarcity to feign demand

Yes, I imagine the framework mostly got a mention because it's one of the vanishingly few laptops available with a 3:2 screen, along with it being generally built well. The article didn't even talk about it, just put it on a list.
