> Sounds like my personal libre-tized version of Devuan with jxself's
Linux-libre installed and all non-free repos and firmware and microcode and
firefox removed (and anything else recommended by vrms) is a lot more free
than PureOS.
Not sure I'd say "a lot more". Firefox is still presumably installable on
your system. Purism excludes microcode by default too (it's available in
Purism's [non-free repo][1], but this repo is not enabled by default). Of
course, the big difference is that your personal setup is your own personal
setup. You are a user with enough knowledge to avoid non-free things for
yourself, so the fact that they are installable does not impact your freedom,
and you are not seeking FSF endorsement for your personal setup as something
to distribute to others.
