I own both a Framework and a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 10. I bought them both a few months ago, and I've been using the Thinkpad X1 Carbon line for years.
Between the two of these, it's the Thinkpad hands down that I'd rather use. It's designed for Linux and has thousands of hours more R&D put into it.
I really love what the Framework folks are doing, but their laptop feels like a Raspberry Pi when stacked against a Thinkpad. Hobbyist, toyish. It's going to need a lot more work to feel comparable. A higher budget, more premium option would be great too.
