If one insists on only using open source software then bad changes can be removed by another dev.


If you could have nothing but pure intentions… that’s still a bad way to go about getting users to update. Users choose to not update to avoid getting fucked by Microslop.


We need to be the one in control of our computing for it to be ‘our’ computer, instead of Microsoft’s. That requires being able to change what it does via the source code, and sharing those changes with others. Windows is proprietary, no source code and it’s illegal to share it - it can never be ‘your’ computer like that.

"Torvalds is known for vocally disagreeing with other developers on the Linux kernel mailing list.

I’m sorry—I tried, it’s just not in me.” - Wikipedia


How can one trust the data from the car without an audit into the software/hardware running at the time?


Gentoo GNU/Hurd experimental was released April this year 2026.
I may wait but perhaps I shall get involved 🤔
Moving away from a proprietary OS to a (mostly) software freedom respecting OS is good. A shame that video games are proprietary.
