   Two things I've said in the past but I almost want to tell everyone: 1. gnumeric is surprisingly useful, 2. I love my computing environment, especially the fact that it's 99.99% #libre (the 0.01% is firmware on my phone)

     You're probably right. Either way, the OS and the things in userland are libre. I don't install firmware blobs if I can avoid it (my phone lacks wifi, bluetooth, and gps, for instance).

     @cmhobbs I didn't realize that bluetooth required proprietary stuff until recently. Very disappointing. :(

     @davehunt after a few weeks. It was easier and easier for me. Sometimes I still see a piece of proprietary software that looks neat but I find a replacement or live without.
