That’s the way to do it. I just wish Framework had a better selection of modules available and had more module bays on their laptops.

Is a dongle that doesn’t dangle even really a dongle at all?

I would like RS-232 and RS-485 modules and a full size SD card reader would be nice too. It’s probably something I would end up building myself if I get a Framework laptop.

Edit: It looks like they have an SD card module now, nice.

I 3d printed a dongle that has a Logitech receiver in it. All their design files are online, so you can make your own pretty easily.

What would you do with RS-232 and RS-485?

I just wish the existing dongles had a bit more density to them. That’s a lot of space for a micro-SD slot, they totally could have fit a full SD card in there as well, and perhaps even a micro-USB or headphone jack.

I like being able to swap them, but each USB-C port can handle a lot more than a single-use dongle.

Right?! If you’re going through the all trouble of mass producing the modules, etc., make them worth it. As it is, it’s a bunch of expensive squares.

Why are the modules so wide?

I guess they have to be the same, so they all have to be the maximum width of anything you might want to put in there.
