• Maryland will hand out 133,000 Chromebooks to the public

  > a vendor locked in Chromebook Choose your poison. Macbooks are tightly knit with Apple and phone home, but are absurdly expensive and people pay for the privilege of getting spied on. Same with Chromebooks: we're just another datapoint for Google, and much more data is collected. Why not hand out Thinkpads flashed with Trisquel Linux[0]? (A Libre Linux that respects privacy?). And don't get me started on Windows... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• What's your take on privacy focused services?

  Not a 'service' but Trisquel OS is a fully freedom-respecting and privacy-aware distro, and has no telemetry or phoning home. Source: 11 months ago

• Returning my ReMarkable 2

  I don't own a cell phone and my computer is entirely free, its BIOS replaced with libreboot running Trisquel, a 100% free-software operating system. Others can do this, too, if they really want the freedom. It is not hard, nor does it require expertise. It only requires the will to do it. Source: 11 months ago

• I like Ubuntu but not it's telemetry, any recomendations for distro?

  There's Trisquel, which is a GNU approved distro based on Ubuntu with all the non-free stuff removed. Otherwise I'd suggest something Debian or Devuan based, like MX Linux or Refracta. Source: about 1 year ago

• Laptops with Linux

  Librem 14 by Purism, can't recall the specifics for this one; sorry*. I do remember that we owe PureOS to them. Source: about 1 year ago

• I am losing my mind while protecting my online privacy

  Another option is PureOS, and you might even consider buying privacy-oriented hardware, such as the Libram product line of computers, laptops, smartphones from Purism, which is just one among many manufacturers in this market. Source: over 1 year ago

• Are there any useable Linux phone Os besides Ubuntu Touch

  There's ClearOS https://www.clearos.com/products/clearos-editions/clearos-mobile and PureOS https://pureos.net/ which the Librem 5 uses. Source: almost 2 years ago

• GNOME is on which tablets or phones?

  Check following link. You can order gnome phone here. Https://pureos.net/. Source: over 2 years ago

• How to keep Debian FSF "approved"?

  If you can actually use a FSF distribution (you don’t need proprietary drivers) you can use PureOS from Purism. It is based on Debian and up streams all their work back to it. https://pureos.net/. Source: over 2 years ago
