Woops, missed that context! Assumed you meant 13 inch framework models in general!

I've been daily driving a first gen 13"/i7 model for 2 years now. It's not the best laptop I've ever owned, but it's my favorite.

Battery dies in sleep, sometimes it won't wake up... honestly things I can live with. In exchange, I've been able to increase ram, replace the screen, and upgrade the back panel myself. I've also switched up my port configuration twice over the 2 years and that's been super convenient.

It's like running a less mainstream desktop environment: It's got rough edges, but I picked it for reasons besides stability and consistency.

I'm going to grab an AMD mainboard next year instead of buying a new laptop, and will turn the old mobo into a server for my website.

Idk, it's got issues, but no more than any other laptop I've run Linux on. It's good enough and I smile every time I pull it out of my bag and see the gear logo (even when it turns out it died in my bag lol)

@OP The Motorola Atrix tried this a while ago, but it wasn't particularly popular with reviewers

Ahh I was missing this kind of post from the Games subreddit. Had no idea opencritic had an MD export option

Don't know if this technically fits here, but I've been LOVING "The Machine" [GBC] (lemmy.world)

Don't know if this fits since it's a new game for a retro console, but as a big collector of retro handheld stuff this has been a treat!

The Machne is a muti-ending RPG for the GBC where you play as GIRT, a denizen of The Machine.

It's seriously great, I've probably seen 10 endings so far and I've only just figured out how to ditch my factory job and live as an artist. I've killed people, moved drugs, sorted boxes, been rich, been homeless, rigged elections -- there's something for everyone.

They released both a physical cartridge and a ROM version that includes a .pocket file if you're rocking an analogue. Available here!

There's also a demo on itch.io

(Feel free to remove if this doesn't fit in retrogames!)
