I have a Framework () 13 laptop and I love it. HOWEVER @SecritLyfe spent a big chunk of $$ on a Framework 16 and it has been a complete disaster. Long story short, it's been OOS since (feistycricket.org)

I have a Framework (@framework) 13 laptop and I love it. HOWEVER @SecritLyfe spent a big chunk of $$ on a Framework 16 and it has been a complete disaster. Long story short, it's been OOS since mid-June.

Finally got it back from service today and IT STILL DOESN'T WORK.

I cannot recommend them anymore. Glad mine is OK and hope it never breaks.

Buy a used eBay Dell for 1/8 the cost and just expect to replace it annually. Its a better deal.

Not giving a blow by blow is your choice. And I'm sorry you're having trouble, honestly.

I'm just trying to explain why this community doesn't seem to be rallying behind you. It's hard without details.

People aren't very trusting these days, and for good reason, unfortunately

@beastlykings Not looking for a rally, just venting into the void. Although I am old enough to remember the days when calling a company out online would often get a personal response and quick resolution.

That's fair. Personally I feel better when I'm having a bad time with something, and others agree that it sucks 🤷‍♂️

Yeah some companies have a really good online presence. Lemmy isn't exactly the paragon of "online" for the average person or company though. Have you tried their official forums? Lots of knowledgeable people over there, and the company workers hang out there too, occasionally.
