Forced obsolescence is the biggest problem with #Chromebook s. #ChromeOS is largely an excellent OS, the #Android and #Linux containers make it super flexible. But #Google forces it to fail early so you have to buy a new one. https://www.techzine.eu/news/devices/105094/piles-of-chromebooks-are-stacking-up-as-electronic-waste/
@trinsec I’ve never tried to install another Linux distro on a Chromebook. But lots of people do it so I think that’s the natural path once they forcefully stop updating it.
@gpowerf Honestly this is the major reason I'm not getting one. This stuff sounds neat and all that, but this obsolete thing is a major bummer.
