Re: [Trisquel-users] Who of this community honestly runs Trisquel GNU/Linux?

I use Debian 9. Although Trisquel has a nice ideology, it is technologically deficient. For example, there is neither the will nor the manpower to generate new releases in reasonable time.

An additional difference from the ones mentioned by other users: Debian accepts the Artistic License 1.0 as free software while the FSF does not. Thus Debian contains Simutrans in the “free” section, while a distribution that follows the FSF guidelines would not include it at all. I once
