Nice, Ubuntu LTS (22.04) seems to fully work out of the box. Although I’d have expected more distros to work like that (even the officially-supported Fedora needs some extra steps to get everything running and its stability is described as “some risk”).
Not yet fully since fingerprint is not supported in all variants.
Also with the "stability" topic. This can mean everthing from hibernation issues to power management.
I think Framework knows exactly why they don't offer preinstalled Linux yet.
I wonder if that just means that Fedora is (almost-but-not-quite) rolling release, and thus is inherently riskier if you need stability? That's how I interpreted it, but if it's referring to some kind of Framework-specific issues, then that's concerning.
