They do? I've run everything from Debian to Arch on mine with zero issues.

My guy, you have zero clue about what you are talking about. Fuck the website. All Linux distros are the same except for the package manager. If Ubuntu works on something then so will pretty much everything else that runs a modern kernel.

What is your point of posting some forum post with zero context as to what I should be reading (I read the whole thing btw)? Some sort of gatcha moment?

Denied. Hardware drivers on Linux are IN THE KERNEL and the appropriate modules for your hardware are loaded at boot while all the other drivers relax in /usr/lib/modules. And wouldn't you know? Framework laptops all use hardware that has the drivers included with the kernel! such as Intel wifi, Intel & AMD graphics. And it's done on purpose! Woah!

And just out of spite, here's my framework laptop running Pop_Os! just fine and dandy.
