I think the appeal will come from having more power, and google supports the OS for a significant amount of time iirc. Looking around different forums online there is definitely an audience for this. Plus framework means you can do basic repairs to the hardware easily should you need it.
Why not just use Linux proper then? There’s basically no issue with losing support on Linux, the latest distros still work on computers from literally 20 years ago. Might not work well if it’s not a light distro, but will still install and run.
Depend on the computer. I have a Lenovo Ideapad who has a hard time running most GNU/Linux distro, to the point an old Dell Latitude E6320 run circles around it. Doubt that Ideapad will work with anything in 10years, let alone 20.
