Title of the (concerning) thread on their community forum, not voluntary clickbait. Came across the thread thanks to a toot by @[email protected] (French speaking)

The gist of the issue raised by OP is that framework sponsors and promotes projects lead by known toxic and racists people (DHH among them).

I agree with the point made by the OP :

The “big tent” argument works fine if everyone plays by some basic civil rules of understanding. Stuff like code of conducts, moderation, anti-racism, surely those things we agree on? A big tent won’t work if you let in people that want to exterminate the others.

I’m disappointed in framework’s answer so far

    Hell no, I love that I can just upgrade to a better Mainboard in a couple years

    Why would I also ditch all the other components because of a CPU change?

      I mean I assume it’s because you wouldn’t in fact be able to get constant upgrade you’d end up being limited by socket design and things.

      There has already been at least one incompatible motherboard upgrade. Essentially a whole new line of framework laptops.

        Yup, I’m not s huge fan of the FW12 because of the 3rd format they now have to maintain

        But the Mainboard of 12, 13 and 16 are all interchangeable inside their model line

        You’re not really limited by socket design, as you change out the whole motherboard

        The only limit is the physical size inside the case. And maybe thermals
