Hello,

I just purchased an AMD framework 13 and while I wait (im)patiently for it to arrive, I was wondering what Linux distros people here are using.

I've only ever use Ubuntu on desktop, but I think I'm ready to move away from it now, which I guess leaves fedora and mint as officially supported distros.

What have you tried? What are your experiences?

Slightly off topic, but whatever distro you choose you probably want to use the kernel parameter amdgpu.abmlevel=0 because without it the display gets super washed out and low contrast when the laptop is in power saving mode which drove me insane until I figured out that parameter.

Thank you, that's good to know
