In Zagreb, I realized my 2021 MacBook Pro M1 is starting to show its age.

@stefano @h3artbl33d Sounds very good. I’ll give it a try. My main goal is to become independent of the big players like Apple, Microsoft and the large webhosters. And to avoid systemd and Pulseaudio wherever possible.
The major downside of OpenBSD on Apple Silicon is that there is no graphical acceleration (even 360p video playback is troublesome). It does make one hefty SSH machine with a sick battery life - but for daily desktop use it might be a mismatch with your scenario.
I recently learned that Framework is now funding alt-right and facist open source software.
So that leaves us with? System76?

I haven't had the chance to try them yet but my likely next laptop will be from @starlabssystems
They are not open hardware (I think) but do sell a large number of replacement parts which makes me hopeful🤞

I have their 12" tablet, and I'm very happy both with the tablet and their support.

@seindal @tyrthecat @h3artbl33d @starlabssystems @NebulaTide I had a look at that 12" tablet is quite interesting. I've an old iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard and it's a perfect "small laptop", but this looks even better

If you order something for delivery to Italy, could I sneak some accessories into the order, which gets too expensive if I order them alone?
It's the tempered glass, and the protective case.

@seindal @starlabssystems sure - but I'm not ordering, for now. I'm just taking notes for my next laptop or tablet 😉

Optionally: get them through Minifree, preinstalled with Libreboot and funds the further development.
Also, there is:
