>based on Arch>fully free software only>official OpenRC support>nice things like icecat in it's libre repothe only problem you'll might have is wifi but you would just need to replace your wifi card with a ath9k one.
>>107577481>even less compatibilty than stock troonix>even more detached subhumans maintaining itno, thanks. Windows just werks.
>>107577481>based on archJust use arch then. Distros of distros are dumb on a fundamental level
>>107577789If you dont have any other options to workaround nonfree hardware, then making the deal with the devil on a free distro is better than using Windows or a nonfree distro.
>>107577481>the only problem you'll might have is wifi but youHe conveniently didn't mention that all modern GPUs require proprietary firmware to function
>>107577927arch does not respect your freedom. Arch uses the the non libre kernel which ships proprietary blobs and has non free software (malware) in it's repos by default.
>>107577985Most people will seek ways to use that nonfree hardwareThe point is that Parabola an ethical distro that does not distribute nonfree firmware. And if the devil or the user installs nonfree firmware, then Parabola cannot be held responsible for promoting nonfree software
>>107578002Why would I need to use some no-name arch derivative when I can just use arch Linux then? You do realize that almost every distro could be used as libre distro since no distro has mandatory proprietary parts?
>>107578037>every distro could be used as libre distro since no distro has mandatory proprietary parts?except that those distros ship's with proprietary blobs (malware) by default.
>>107578037What you're suggesting is options to install only free software using the nonfree distros. That doesnt make them free distros, because they still contain nonfree software, but you could still privately recommend them to someone if you know they wont be easily steered towards installing nonfree software.
>>107577481because i use freebsd
Sorry, I already use NixOS (with fully-blown systemd (based) integration) with allowNonFree = true;
>>107577481>>nice things like icecat in it's libre repoWhich has not been updated in 2 years? Hahahaha
>>107577481other than being libre what features does it have?
