Much like the evil corporations you think you're fighting, I don't give a fuck what you do. I'm just pointing out that the amount of work you'll need to put in to try to avoid it is likely going to mean that you're going to spend more time maintaining than using …and, that when you do use, you're likely to be cut off from a lot of things at any rate.

You do you. If that's tilting at windmills, be my guest.

@nixCraft oh, I thought this was a joke...

@nixCraft So many people in this thread picking on Ubuntu for this, but it’s certainly not limited to them, or even just to commercial distros. Here’s the #Debian discussion on the matter. https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2026/03/msg00016.html

Yes, this requirement is bullshit. No, pretending it doesn’t exist is not a viable response.
