> I really miss netbooks. They were an amazing moment for Linux. No surprise Microsoft killed them.

As far as cheap, low-spec, disposable laptops go, Chromebooks are the spiritual successor to netbooks.

I am typing this comment from my GPD Pocket 4 with Fedora.

Netbooks didn’t need Microsoft’s help in dying. Nobody bought more than one of them, the experience was that bad.

https://frame.work/fi/en/laptop12 is kinda close

i didn't even realized they are dead, was looking for a cheap one for running my calendar server and couldn't find a single one. I had one it was really handy

How are netbooks dead?

What's the meaningful difference between a netbook and a modern 11-inch laptop?
