I was hoping to get something this fall. If I could get something this summer, that would be great but I know it would be rushing. If I decide on risc-v, it doesn't matter. Because I would have to wait however long they make me. 😭

"Protect my privacy" is really my overall philosophy with ANYTHING tech-related. It's more being extra cautious/paranoid than anything else. The hardware itself supposedly doesn't track you, but I still don't 100% trust either side of the duopoly. Better safe than sorry. 😅

I am looking to build an alternative laptop to AMD/Intel. I want to limit how much I support them and protect my privacy.

I have thought about getting the Framework Laptop 13 chasis with expansion cards and use RISC V for the main board.

Debian is in the lead for the OS.

Are there any other alternatives that could be recommended that may be even better?
