With XMPP

“Privately” and sign up with Google and Facebook are opposites statements

It’s a good article. Although not any new information, I hope that “normies” read it and start using something else. Hopefully something non-chromium based

But that wouldn’t be free software. An essential freedom of free software is the freedom to freely modify and redistribute it.

Anyway, the license you’re looking for may be CC BY-NC-ND but take into account that CC shouldn’t be used with software, so it’s more for creative work. (License explanation: https://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/)

It isn’t a free license (it doesn’t let others to redistribute or sell the content) so I advise you against using it, but since you’re asking for it I answer your question. Now is your turn to choose the right option.

Freenet is far better than that blockchain shit

The only decent option is Firefox with a few tweaks. I’d avoid chromium if you want privacy.

Anyway, I guess that ungoogled chromium is the less horrible option if you totally need chromium.

Exactly this

You’re wrong. I don’t even like open source software. I exclusively use free software. And yes, I have a librebooted laptop which is my daily driver with a free, as in freedom, BIOS.

I respect artists and I think that they deserve to get paid and make a living with their art. I love visiting art galleries, reading and listening to music.

The problem with games is that they execute code in my machine. I don’t want any code to be executed in my machine if I can’t know exactly what it’s doing. This gives me freedom and digital sovereign. This is how things should work. This is what I believe in. So no code will be run on my computer if it isn’t free software.

And the software I use isn’t useless at all, since I can get my job done with this software. So I guess that it’s pretty useful. It isn’t a little bubble, you have thousands and thousands of pieces of free software you can use. At least you need something really specialized, I bet that you can do it using free software.

Edit: fixed some typos

Libreboot can’t be ported to post2008 machines (yet, although I don’t think this is happening anytime soon) because they require proprietary blobs for booting. That’s caused by Intel’s ME and AMD’s PSP.

So if this machine has an AMD processor, it can’t be supported by Libreboot.

Of course that it isn’t. But if a device supports libreboot it means that it supports the Linux-libre kernel, so you can install a 100% free as in freedom distribution

Libreboot completely remove Intel ME, so yes (be careful because Coreboot does not). Fortunately, the x200 is compatible with Libreboot

The problem goes deeper than that. Libreboot is a must have

Well, DOOM isn’t a copy at all, since the original DOOM was realised under the GPL license. And Veloren seems to be a pretty good game, idk if it’s inspired by any game but I think that it’s unique.

Anyway, I think that remaining free as in freedom is way more important than playing a certain game

There are a lot of free (as in freedom, libre) good games. I specially enjoy DOOM, Freeciv, 0ad and SuperTuxKart, but there are more “mainstream” kind of games which are completely free software: Veloren, Minetest, etc

The only option if you want privacy which is not Firefox (it’s an independent fork) since every other browser is Google’s chromium or uses Google’s blink. Fuck Google, we don’t want a Google web monopoly. We should use browsers that doesn’t use their web engine. Is the only way we have to fight them

Steam is proprietary software so I’m not touching that

The problem is that it isn’t free software. I recommend using Searx

Thanks but we already have XMPP

Yes, the hard part is flashing it the first time. Updates can be done without disassembling your laptop. It’s just like a software update and then reboot it. Done.

I’m using a t400 and it’s definitely worth it
