So THAT'S why it's as slow as a wretched Yeeloong... :-(

Ew. Those things are worse than, or just as bad as, a
Right; the full free software option on that device is described on
https://libreboot.org/docs/hardware/c201.html
The "TL;DR" summary is that the WiFi (which is soldered on) and the graphics
need proprietary junk. The workarounds would be to unsolder the WiFi and
replace it or use a USB one
The SoC used by the C201 is actually a very good one, in fact it's one of the
SoCs lkcl is looking at for the next EOMA68 computer card.
Libreboot is not needed for Chromebooks, by the way. They come with Das
U-boot installed. The only concern is how well the SoC works with Linux-libre
How about supporting the ASUS Chromebook C201? It's supported by libreboot,
and there should be some of them available.

Would it be possible to get Trisquel working on that kind of hardware, with
the Rockchip SoC and all? Delete all the Google
Here, Parabola instead needs to discontinue i686 and extend to more arm
ports, due to its rolling benefit.
For Trisquel since it's LTS we can try to liberate Raspbian to become our
Trisquel ARM.
Trisquel has never supported other architectures even if those offered freer
computers, such as the Lemote Yeelong MIPS laptop (which was supported by
gNewSense). This might have been partially due to Ubuntu focusing on x86
releases compared to Debian.
I understand the logic regarding the
I think you misunderstand.

This is to address the problem of libreboot-supported systems drying up. For
an example, try finding a PDP-10 computer today. That's what the future holds
for librebootable x86 machines. Since most aren't in production anymore
Shouldn't Trisquel focus on timely releases for x86 (which most people use)
before supporting other architectures? The latest version of Trisquel is
based on a two and a half old release of Ubuntu (which means a lot of
software is outdated). The priority should be on releasing a new version

Maybe commenting on this will help show interest?
