I don't think the Librem 5 removes all the binary blobs either, right? From what I can tell, they're nearly identical right now in that regard, though I trust Purism to actually work on removing blobs, so maybe long term they're a better option. But AFAIK, neither has completely unlocked the bootloader or the modem, and I'm not sure about WiFi/Bluetooth.
- fghtr 7y agoThey do remove all binary blobs at least by the definition of the Free Software Foundation, who already recommed it:. "The Purism Librem 5 cell phone is another exciting addition to the Giving Guide this year: we're giving it a tentative recommendation because the company has publicly committed to doing the right things for prioritizing user freedom and privacy." https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/ethical-tech-giving-guide-freedom-is-the-gift-that-keeps-on-giving https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/ethical-tech-giving-guid...
