Nice meme.

>>60474435
Yeah. But the most usable maybe is trisquel.

Parabola GNU/Linux

Debian

Seems the most free as in freedom and free as in choices to me

Not Gentoo

>What is the most free (as in freedom) GNU/Linux distro?
Try GuixSD, is really popular right now
>>
>>60477453
why are you even bumping your question is already answered here >>60474433
if you install trisquel make sure it's alpha version, stable is based on ubuntu 14.04 and kind of old

openbsd

I always suspected bsd was only mentioned by trolls

Okay, let's see here . . .

>Blag
Literally dead. Plus, do we really need another libre knockoff of a distribution that, in itself, doesn't exactly have a large hobbyist audience? 90% of enterprise gnu/linux users don't really care if their distro is completely free or not, so I don't know what they were thinking. If anything, a 100% free distro probably scares off a lot of normies, just because they associate free with cheapness (in terms of quality) and unreliability because of dev negligence, which this distro encompasses pretty well.

>Dragora
Also dead. But at least it was a unique distro, so it has that going for it. Never used it, but guessing from the website, I guess it was like Crux, in which case, it would have been a complete pain in the ass to use anyway, so good riddance.

>Dynebolic
Also dead. And what is the audience for this one anyway?

>gNewSense
Probably one of the better FSF-endorsed distros, if it weren't completely outdated.

>Parabola
Is literally just arch with a blocklist, but at least it works. Same goes for Ututo, except that ones dead.

>GuixSD
Easily one of the best things FSF has ever done. Superior, functional package manager forked from nix, but since it's newer, the devs have been able to avoid going through a lot of the trouble the nix devs went through. Guix is pretty much a nicer version of nix.

Debian, comes fully libre by default. The only reason they're not FSF-endorsed is because they actually give you the option of installing non-free software.

gpl is the ultimate cuck license
if you werent just some a memer youd know gpl violations mean literally nothing

chinese producers dont respect it, vmware can flaunt it and assfuck gnucucks while wasting boatloads of fsf and co's money

you are the ultimate cuck
>>
>>60477490
guixsd also implements core fsf ideology they couldn't do before which was getting rid of sysadmins, guix doesn't need root and installs pkgs locally which is important for school labs and other locked down systems

>>60477680
>gpl violations mean literally nothing
What is Artifex vs. Hancom? The Busybox GPL lawsuits?

It's true that sometimes bad people take advantage of the GPL and it isn't enforced, but just because something bad happens; say, someone robs your house, doesn't mean you throw away your guard door, break open your windows, and leave the door unlocked.
