IMO Framework is a gimmick company that capitalizes on techie hipsters who buy into their story. The repairability case is very weak - in 10+ years of owning laptops I never had one fail, they are reliable enough that outside the warranty period if they die I am fine with taking the L and buying a new one (and mine spent a bunch of time in a backpack on my motorcycle in pouring rain, getting smushed on bus rides, used in cafes). The only thing that dies eventually is battery capacity and it starts showing signs of use/wear.
Modding and upgrade story is more compiling and worth paying a premium in special cases, but their upgrade story is weak. They lag behind HW releases and they don't even support the strongest CPU chip available on the market right now (Ryzen 395), they just sell it as that silly desktop brick. Meanwhile Asus has it in a 14 inch tablet form factor at a better price.
