I have created a plymouth theme (Linux only) with the animations from @sniss. If they allow me I will link back my GitHub repository for it. If no special license is requested by @sniss, I would like to publish the whole theme under the MIT license.

Why not? Framework hasnât announced model names; so far all the branding is for âFramework Laptopâ.

It would be nice to come up with names. If they plan on releasing multiple different models.
And even then, you can still name things. Intel famously made a reference design called a XPG or something.
The âPrincipleâ 13 inch
The 15 inch could be âEvoâ or something of that nature. âThe step toward size, weight, cost and performanceâ.
So next time, when the 13 inch is referred, we would say âFramework Principleâ. Instead of saying âFramework 13 inch Gen xyzâ. If we get there, that is.

You guys please remember who were using this fist in the past. It brings me bad memories⌠Raised fist - Wikipedia

Exactly. Itâs like swastika - positive symbol used by political agenda, ruining it.

Umm, the fist is largely used for activist motions fighting opression? While there are bad use cases, I think you all are overreacting? Comparing it to a swastika is pretty ridicuolousâŚ
Also itâs the standard symbol for right to repairâŚ

Iâm gonna side with @Shiroudan here, if you donât like the fist, thatâs totally fine, but itâs such a ubiquitous symbol that itâs unreasonable to assign it a purely negative meaning.
I donât think I would ever use it, but thereâs really no reason to come to a fan art thread and go âyour art makes me uncomfortableâ, if it makes you uncomfortable, just ignore it.
Itâs not even the fist alone either, itâs the fist with a wrench, which is a different symbol, and one for right to repair to boot, which is kinda the whole selling point of the Framework laptop

Just be careful what signs you are using⌠I âfeel uncomfortableâ because people using these signs destroyed my country. I am ignoring this art, no problem, but I want to give my 2 cents, consider it history lesson. Itâs important that we remember so we donât fall into the same trap as X years ago.
Be aware. Thatâs all.

The fist part do have eerie resemblance to the fist that was shown in the wikipedia page.
HOWEVER:
- Upon closer inspection, the fingers are made more angular, the area near âthenar eminenceâ is also slightly more angular, and the palm âcreaseâ is also different.
- Perhaps more importantly, the hand is holding a adjustable wrench, which, perhaps, have more meanings than the hand itself.
Because a wrench â by and of itself â does not mean anything. Itâs just a common tool in a shop. Perhaps we can understand the fist to be a symbol of âthe peopleâ, which I donât think is a stretch.
Also, this movement is literally called right to repair. Itâs not about if you are able to repair or not. Itâs to put regulations in how companies should support the " repair and modify their own consumer products in ways that would help increase their lifetime and/or performance".
And also, this same graphics (albeit, without the ring, and maybe slightly rotated) is present on effectively every iFixit product. If there is a problem with said graphics, then iFixit would probably have faced a much bigger issue.
Itâs simply a symbol, yes, not unlike Swa[_]ka. However, the latter is related to, well, (mostly) crazy people, but the former isnât.
TL;DR
Itâs like how if your car tire had a puncture you donât have to go to your car dealer to get it fixed, taking three weeks, and all cars effectively use the same wheels. You can change them out yourself or at a local tire repair shop. And attempting to apply this idea to other consumer products (including John Deere tractors).
And locked cellphones tied to a specific carrierâs networks.
I think we have had enough discussion on this matter, and we are getting way off topic and approaching âextreme discussionâ territory.

This is getting very off-topic and could become inflammatory. Letâs get back to the fan art please.

The top ârowâ is just showing the process I went through to smooth out the pixels.
Technically the one on the right is closer to the framework logo, but the smaller hole on the left make it look more cute
