How dependent on framework is the repair basis?

I made a dual USB port because I needed one more port than the laptop had. An adaptor would have been adequate, but I like this solution more.
I haven't tried PopOS, but Linux Mint runs flawlessly even though it's only community supported. This community post about PopOS indicates that it may work, but it's more trouble than it's worth. I would not recommend buying a Framework Laptop if you really need PopOS. If you're happy trying a few different distros or picking one that's officially supported, then a Framework laptop is the only laptop I'd recommend.
I've bought 4 Framework laptops so far, and all of them are running flawlessly. I'm actually slightly disappointed that I haven't been able to test the repairability of them yet.
Thank you. I think seeing what you were able to do with that module helps significantly. Along with other folks feedback I've gone ahead and ordered a framework 13 for my wife. Now need to poke at fedora and see if I want her on that distro or something else I'm more comfortable supporting.
Cheers!
