It'a a start! Makes the switch much easier.

No. You either go full Stallman and inject Gentoo directly into your aorta, or you might as well be deep throating Satya Nutella while bouncing on Tim Apple's lap. Filthy casual.

Noob, I snort pure Colombian and run LFS directly in my brain using the power of cryptic dreams and messages handed down to me directly by Lord RMS

So you're saying your prefrontal cortex doesn't even have a Holy C✝ compiler? Terry looks down on you in shame.

The only holy compiler I need is lord RMSs GCC

Agreed, OSS purity is silly. I am running an open source client (Thunder) to this open source service on my Pixel 9 running GraphineOS, the low level firmware is still absolutely proprietary.

Actually, to be clear, I don't think FOSS purity is bad. I just mean that denigrating what others are doing because they're using something non-free while they're making steps in the right direction is dumb and counterproductive.

To my mind, FOSS is the only way forward for a healthy, functioning society, and the fact that so much of our digital landscape is being gradually replaced with it is to me evidence of that. I think the end goal should always be pure FOSS, but that doesn't (necessarily) mean immediately jumping to all FOSS; it just means taking steps to cut out proprietary software wherever you reasonably can.
