@soupuos What rough edges?
Some hardware and proprietary software are designed maliciously with sharp blades to cut the user, but that’s nothing to do with Trisquel.
It would be good if people were to be turned off from the proprietary software kernel known as Linux and got to know GNU Linux-libre and/or Hurd instead.
@soupuos >most people don’t see how significant free software is
Indeed.
>If a libre system means a worse experience for the user, many won’t care enough to stick with it.
A libre system that respects the user is always a better experience for the user, although some inconveniences may exist (which are fixable with effort).
It’s a real shame if people give up on freedom over a slight difficulty, but there’s nothing I can do about that really.
>Linux with proprietary software is at least a step in the right direction; I agree that it’s not the final destination though.
Maybe, but if only a single step is ever taken in the right direction, has more than a trivial gain been realized?
