Two years ago I was contacted by a company called MALIBAL.
They were interested in a sponsorship, where I would simply put their link in the video description and get money for it.

You can indeed but better hardware for many purposes for cheaper.
Want a gaming laptop? Or a runs Linux out of the box laptop? FW is not even close to the best value there.
Want a laptop with well-documented physical specs, including CAD drawings to make readily modifiable and upgradeable, potentially being the last laptop chassis that one needs to buy? Nothing else comes close to touching FW.
I avoid ads, so, maybe they’re inappropriately marketing as gaming laptops. I’d not call that a scam but would say that it’s ethically questionable, at best. FW is a laptop for people prioritizing long-term repairability and tinkering over everything else.
but, he doesn’t like it, so it’s a scam. it’s not enough just to not buy it, he has to bitch about it and save the world from this evil, malignant company selling extremely customizable Linux laptops with versatile expansion options.
