This reviewer seemingly can&amp;#x27;t get over his biases for the hyperoptimized consumer market, and isn&amp;#x27;t the least bit interested in servicability or software freedom. These things are certainly trade offs and that needs to be acknowledged, but the review constantly &amp;quot;others&amp;quot; the desire for such things rather than critiquing the device within that context. This leads to useless critiques like focusing on the lack of processor speed while concentrating on bloated webapps. The author even forgoes trying &amp;quot;Maestral, a lightweight macOS and Linux client for Dropbox&amp;quot;, which if truly lightweight should have run fine!&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile it sounds like the MNT has some real flaws (the battery discharging thing), but the context of that isn&amp;#x27;t really described - can the battery controller IC use much less power but the proper code hasn&amp;#x27;t been written, or is it a true design mistake, or what? In general open hardware involves some very hard tradeoffs, and this review just complains about that difficulty the whole time while pretending not to.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>MNT Reform laptop has fully open hardware and software–for better or worse</title><url>https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/01/review-mnt-reform-laptop-has-fully-open-hardware-and-software-for-better-or-worse/</url></story>
