It’s okay. I get about 2-3h of discord, 3-4h of programming and 5h of browsing the web. Since they fixed the issue with the display extension cards it even holds charge in sleep mode pretty well. Unfortunately, nothing compared to the M1 MacBook I have to use for work but still decent.

I love my framework. Ubuntu and Fedora work out of the box. I didn’t like the glossy screen but they even fixed that. The only problem is that I cannot justify to replace a 1 year old screen just because it’s glossy.

I found the example of a pub really interesting. One could see sites like Reddit as something like this. On the other hand, pubs don’t use unpaid “volunteers” (at least outside the US) to wait the tables.

In the end the proposition of an online community, made and maintained by the community, seems at odds with making profit. Maybe concepts like Lemmy can fill the gap and each user only has to provide their share to keep their instance running.
