Hey man, if you find yourself with a Very Serious Opinion after reading one of these, you should maybe say it out loud in a room by yourself instead of posting it as a comment. This has nothing to do with whether you’re right or not. Nobody wants Serious Opinions underneath their jokes, and you will be much happier when you learn this.

Just saying, if you had spent as much on a laptop as you did on a MacBook, you would get a full work days of battery.

It’s the same failure point apple fans have about Android. Yeah there are cheap androids. They suck, but also they cost$100-$200 new. What’s apples offering in that price range?

Facts about why you should pay more to an unethical company for a use case that doesn’t exist smells like a sales pitch to me.

Where are you going to work on your computer for 16 hours straight without access to a wall outlet?

linux isn’t a brand though, it’s a lifestyle and a religion if you go far enough.

Yeah, it’s not a brand man. That’s part of what makes it great. A brand is something created to profit off of, which always ends up worse for the end user. Linux is not there to make profit. It’s whole purpose of existing is to serve the user.

I don’t care about the corporation, if microsoft was making the M2 microsoft book I would buy that, problem is, nothing in my experience is close enough to the macbooks, I wish it was, I would have loved to save some money.

I will buy framework if they start selling in my country by the time I need a new notebook.

If you wanted this, you don’t need a dam apple laptop, but at the same time, the closest competitor is the new snapdragon laptops that are closer to having up to a week of battery life. Also, they are capable of running more than you can on an apple machine, albeit it is early progress in proper x86 emulation, and more productivity programs are starting to support it.

So, no, you are NOT forced to make a decision to get a MacBook and the price gouging you experience.

Even then, picking a device for your use case is extremely important. I know many people who can survive with lower powered devices as they only use it for web browsing or documents like Excel or Word. Which an apple device would work well for but seriously is complete overkill and overpriced for.
