    I used Linux Libre kernel for a bit - honestly surprised at how well most things still worked? The biggest downside seems to be Wi-Fi drivers - except for that one Atheros card, none of the modern Wi-Fi cards will work without Linux firmware blobs

      Same could’ve once been said about a free OS like Linux. Now it is absolutely possible, with the downsides shrinking bit by bit.

      The goal of 100% free is one I support. And these people are working to make it possible.
