Framework Laptop with Ubuntu Review
The author does not address the screen resolution (and just says the screen is nice) but I'm hearing that the screen res is a bit to high to work with without scaling and a tad to low to do 2x scaling. And people don't like fractional scaling, at least in Gnome (it seems to look weird). Is this still an issue?<p>I tend to prefer 1080p for this reason on 12-14" screens. My Thinkpad X13 gen 2 has a 13.3", 1920x1200 screen, windows sets it to 150%, which seems ok, although Ubuntu works well for me without scaling still. The Frame work laptop has an even higher res (2256x1504). I do hear people scaling the fonts and that seems to be a nice solution... I remember from back in the old days that I never really liked the look of this.<p>What do people think of this? I'm hoping that in the future you can choose the screen (and easily get replacements as well, I hear they are working on that).<p>Edit: I hope these issues are being addressed by established DE's, I'm assuming they won't be an issue on Canonical's (hypothetical ;)) Flutter based DE that's (obviously ;)) coming and on System76's Rust based new DE for Pop OS [0].<p>[0]: <a href="https://www.theregister.com/2021/11/08/system76_developing_new_linux_desktop/" rel="nofollow">https://www.theregister.com/2021/11/08/system76_developing_n...</a>
