If someone who makes ARM hardware wants to make a mainboard, I’d imagine Framework will work with them under the same conditions they’re working with DeepComputing on the RISC-V one.
From what I can see, arm Linux itself is still a very small market so I don’t see how a small company could work on it and make a profit from that. Maybe once it becomes more mainstream and there is a bigger demand for it, they would definitely consider it. I would rather have them focus on what they have and expand their production, cost and sales region at the moment.
I would have rather seen an ARM Linux board for a more modest cost

If ARM is a small market, RISC-V is even smaller.
I personally like when boundaries are pushed, and welcome more independence on x86.
