Making USBC modules that only fit in your laptops isn’t environmentallly friendly.
Also pretty sure most large scale manufacturers use plenty of recycled materials because its much cheaper to do so.
Stop pushing non modular intel/x86 boards and make a SoM design so you dont have to buy a whole new mobo to upgrade. Not to mention Intel ME backdoors.
The framework USB C modules work with any USB C port though?
So does any USBC alternative that currently exists.
You said:

But they do work with other USBC ports
Yes I said they only fit in the framework. Meaning they won’t slide in to any other laptop chassis. Of course they’ll work (in theory) in any other laptop but they’re so pointless I doubt anyone would want to.
That is like saying a USB stick doesn’t fit in other laptops though. Yes other laptops have not been custom designed to fit this particular USB stick perfectly but it does still work.
Whatever dude I’m talking about extra plastic parts that are totally unnecessary. What dont get about how that will just add more waste to the world?
So you are saying making it more modular would increase waste? I disagree.
That plastic would mostly exist anyway in a normal device, the difference here is:
- if one port breaks it can be easily replaced
- if the laptop as a whole breaks the port can be recovered and used elsewhere
- if you are missing a port that is critical to your needs you can just buy the new port instead of a whole new laptop.
These things mean there will be less consumption compared to a normal device.
