What distros would you recommend for use on a (non-gaming) Laptop?
I would prefer something based on Debian, like Ubuntu or PopOS, but I'm open for other suggestions as well, as I'm looking for a distro to daily-drive on my new Framework laptop.

Why not directly Debian ?
This is the way. Why go through middle man when you can go straight to the source.
Just remember, stable is for servers, testing is for workstations.
Stable isnt just "for servers". I run stable on my laptop as well
OP said they dont need it for gaming, so you dont need the latest, shiniest things. Stable + backports should be good enough for most people unless you're doing some really specialized work
Also flatpak may be a convenient way to get the latest and shiniest on Stable.
Exactly. The newest LTS just released. Not cutting edge, but well supported and very stable.
