Like I said, each thing is just "fix this one thing by compromising principles." If you do that with all the UX problems you literally end up with ChromeOS. Different distros are on different places along the spectrum between Debian and ChromeOS. Ubuntu is further along for example, so you get applications in containers and other things like that.
- eptcyka 5y agoAllowing one to make the choice in a pragmatic manner instead of wasting time dancing around to praise the FOSS gods to achieve the same end goal is stupid. Just having an option in the installer to allow non-free firmware and drivers won't move Debian to be any closer to ChromeOS. It will make it easier to use for a lot of people. Stop with this false dichotomy that bad UX implies giving up freedoms. All I'm arguing for is allowing users to make their choices about their own freedoms easier.
