    I’m curious why Debian doesn’t make the cut? PureOS is based on Debian and listed.

      I believe PureOS went out of its way to remove any proprietary blobs from the stock Debian codebase.

      because it allows for the nonfree version to be installed - which I have. I want the free version, but am too stupid to figure out all of the software that I’ll need for it (bluetooth, Wifi, maybe monitors, maybe USBs/flashdrive, idk.). I tried for days to get the FOSS software for my Nvidia GPU to work, but gave up and installed Nvidia software instead - in a few minutes.
