BIOS replacement: Https://coreboot.org - T440p, X131e, X1C1, and xx30 series (no 61) or older Https://libreboot.org - similar to coreboot as of 20221214 release. Source: over 1 year ago
All of that code is also in the upstream coreboot.org sources, although these sources are less-well tested, generally speaking.

There was the spat of drama in 2016, and the view of "always in the middle of drama" is IMO confirmation bias since then. Today's drama is part of larger culture wars going on in the community: - The pro-RMS vs anti-RMS thing going on since RMS's removal from the FSF in 2019, much amplified by his reinstatement in 2021 (the latter of which lead to most of the FSF staff walking out).
