Oh they still won't release their phone yet? It makes me wonder if the government secretly intervened. Their Librem.one email service also sucks. Not only is it more expensive then other privacy email services like Posteo (or maybe even just renting a VPS + domain for email), but they also require you to fully dox yourself (home address and all) just to use their service, even if you are paying with crypto. Last time, I checked they also require you to pledge an allegiance to freetardism just to use their services.

As for Framework, I know that it's not focused on a particular OS, but they still sell their laptops with Windows pre-installed, if the user wishes to do so. I don't know if the so called "Microsoft tax" applies to their computers if you buy one without Windows though. The so called, "Microsoft tax" is another reason why I think people shouldn't buy (new) Windows computers just to install Linux on them.
