I didn’t even realize there were other possibilities. Certain tasks require a laptop… until one day I saw a friend working on a spreadsheet on his phone! He said he was too lazy to work on the spreadsheet on his laptop. These people exist?!

How?
One of my conservative relatives sent me this. I asked if he was suggesting we need to do more to help people out of homelessness and invest more in metal health services… But no of course not.
Either set the scaling to 1 or 2 if you want it to look sharp
I just switched the scale to 2x on the Framework and it also looks blurry. Actually, I wanna say the Framework display at 2x is worse than at 1.25x… I can see more of the fuzz around the fonts now. Framework at 2x on the left, Dell XPS 13 with the font size increased on the right.
It’s better to increase font and icon sizes if they are too small.
I haven’t tried this, but seems logical.
Coming from a Dell XPS 13 where everything Just Works ™ , I’m bummed Framework’s choice for display isn’t Linux compatible. I might just end up returning the Framework, the blurry fonts are messing with my eyes…
I’ve been using Arch in 1 desktop and 1 laptop for like 7 years now as a daily driver. I use pacman and AUR to install stuff. I haven’t had a breakage yet. In fact, I’ve had hardware get better supported over time due to access to the latest kernel updates.
Most impressively, I had my desktop shutoff for like 8 months one time. When I turned it on and updated the system packages… Everything just worked and I was immediately up to date.
I bought a Framework once. The build quality was better than System76, but not great. However, Framework is not a Linux laptop. They designed it for Windows and only afterwards they were surprised to find that people wanted it for Linux.
A lot of Linux laptops don’t have HiDPI displays because they’re not really compatible.
Example Framework: https://community.frame.work/t/tracking-state-of-hidpi-on-linux/8301
For years people have been trying to work around Framework’s poor display choice. And they’re still trying.
If you have a regular DPI display, you get to avoid a whole class of bugs and issues.
If you wanna have a good time with Linux, you need some mechanical sympathy.
Btw, tbh, brb, I’ve had good success with the Dell XPS 13 and the Lenovo X1 Carbon. System76 build quality was meh.
Arch, btw. With GNOME.
Most people should use ext4. Only use something else if you want to tinker and don’t need long term data storage.
I think I would choose 30, but I’d like to do my 20s differently. Lifestyle creep is real. I notice my younger coworkers also make the mistake of spending way too freely. I’d also get married earlier. And take bigger risks earlier.
