I’m loving my framework 13, and have tried the following distro on it:
Ubuntu (24.04-25.10)
Fedora
Bazzite
Debian
Pop OS
Cachy OS
NixOS
Mint
Debian was a pain to get the firmware updated on, Ubuntu was super easy, but left because the potential spyware they may be putting on soon and the ID laws, Poo OS was one of the early ones and was nice but not for me, Bazzite was too controlled, but great for gaming, Cachy OS is something I will go back to eventually, Nix was nice but need more time with that package manager to figure out the best way to set it up my way, and mint was my first distro on there.
can it run Linux?
Can it? Yes.
Will it? Almost certainly.
Is there something you can install right now? No.

Officially supports 3 distros and supports more with community support.
