Still liking my Framework laptop, especially because it has hardware switches for the microphone and camera.

However, I think the switch UX is backwards. When you have the inputs disabled, the switch is red. When you have them enabled, it's black.

I'd expect live inputs to be red, which is how Purism's hardware switches are designed.

Red is dead, firearm style

Some devices are so crappy, they'll have a toggle for the dumbass design choice, so you as the user feel like you'te the stupid one in the equation.

"Invert Status Light" or sonething like that 🙂

MacBooks also have a physical switch for both camera and mic when you close the lid

Is it a hardware wired led or software controlled? They are a company that listens to community feedback well if it's the latter.
