How dependent on framework is the repair basis? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm looking into a new laptop and really like what I see from framework. One point I'm concerned about is buying into a repairable system but being wholly reliant on a small relatively new player to continue providing specially modularized parts (e.g. the USB modules). Is this concern valid or is there something I'm overlooking?

Side question: has anyone had luck with PopOS on a framework?

Thank you. I think seeing what you were able to do with that module helps significantly. Along with other folks feedback I've gone ahead and ordered a framework 13 for my wife. Now need to poke at fedora and see if I want her on that distro or something else I'm more comfortable supporting.

Cheers!
