Anyone ever notice that System76 hides their parts list?
They publish all this stuff on how to repair their gear, cool.
But with out parts lists, this information might as well not exist
If system76 truly supported user freedom, they would allow customers to attempt to source their own parts. Even if the parts could not be bought on the open market, listing the part #s is still a huge part of user freedom.
Anyone else get a bad vibe from system76’s complete lack of part #s?
Not the case at all in my experience. I’ve emailed support with questions before buying and they’ve provided specifics on hardware models and part numbers.
It just feels very anti-freedom anti-opensource to gatekeep these things behind support tickets.
