As of 2026, Debian GNU/Linux:>distributes and recommends non-free software>has elections as free as russia's >publicly subscribes to subversive and impractical radical ideologyAnd, as ever,>distributes outdated, buggy software>is full of small irregularities which are holdovers from earlier times>breaks on version upgradeWhy would anyone use this? Why would anyone build on this? A foundation of sand.

>>108517398because shipping outdated software actually works better this may shock the zoomers but every generation realizes it in time
>>108517438Case Closed. You mean Case Closed.
>>108517438peak as in, it peaked around episode 500?the next 600 episodes have been all filler episodes, not a single one worth watching
>>108517398Besides the non-free-firmware bundled in for hardware support Debian still explicitly separates non-free software and requires the user to manually opt in by adding the repos. >but they shouldn't include hardware support or non-free repos at allYes I love converting people to my tech religion by telling them the first step is to replace their entire hardware stack and change their jobs to something that doesn't require specific software. I also love telling teenagers to ask their friends to record streamed zoom lessons on their phone so that they can listen in and don't have to directly interact with non-free software like a Hasidic Jew asking their neighbor to turn on the stove.
