This is the only correct answer. Onshape is a fantastict, feature complete CAD system that I would be happy to use for any commercial project regardless of size and stakes. Love it.

It is about installing .deb that you manually downloaded from somewhere. You can’t install them by double clicking on them, you have to install from command line.

I honestly doubt that every 10th user in Norway is using Linux.

I assume data comes from statcounter.com. I looked at Norway there.

Browser market share: Firefox June 2023: 2.65%. September 2023: 36.27%!!! December 2.46%.

This does not compute. Similarly for Desktop OS. Linux in Norway has 3.41% is September, but 16.99% in November?

Loaded fine here

If the goal is to have the most up to date bleeding edge software, but have it on a critical machine, consider immutable distro like Fedora Silverblue or OpenSuse Aeon. Especially the latter will be just days behind Arch, and if an update breaks something you just roll back and try updating again in a week.

I used Silverblue as my main work system and this saved me a few times.

There is a free tier with limitation that your designs are open for others to see. Not ideal, but perfectly fine for tinkering.

If you have a choice - use Onshape. Fully featured CAD system, on par with SolidWorks and such, works perfectly on Linux out of the box.

I ordered one. First units should be shipped early December. Right now they seem to be some out - just few days ago you could order with 7-8 weeks delivery, now it’s just ‘notify when available’.

Wanted to buy framework laptop for the longest time, but they dont ship to Norway :(

Yes, finally something better than 1080p!

No pen. I used to have one with Surface Pro but in the end I never used it.

Plus if I decide I really need it the StarLite uses this open standard meaning you can use whichever pen later.

Per latest updates people should start getting their hands on first units early December. I have pre-ordered mine almost 3 months ago now and can’t wait!

The problem with older machines is the web browsing, not the system itself. You could use a browser with Java script disabled but a lot of websites will refuse to work.

You have to sacrifice with browser functionality to improve performance.

I think the biggest benefit is for people that cannot code or are just learning. Before a python script to do X or Y was a real problem. Now it is easy.

Plus it may help with Linux adoption - LLM can describe few commands in terminal plus some text config easily, but will struggle with Windows-like graphical configuration.
