    I still don’t know why you are wasting your time with that piece of trash and I’ll never know. We can support RISC-V development and fully liberate Pinebook Pro and MNT Reform but nooooo, we must do as Big Brother says!

      I agree that we shouldn’t be giving money to companies who do not support our use cases on our hardware. But unfortunately RISC-V is years away from being close to competitive in the laptop space.

        What the hell is so wrong with x86! Freedom issues? It’s 1000 times worse in arm in general, it only gets worse when you add that Apple flavor to the mix!

    I don’t think this makes much sense as 90% of Linux users do not usually buy/able to afford high-end hardware (there are rare exceptions, me being such)

    I recommend reading English literature/taking grammar classes to improve your understanding of the language.

      makes sense you have to use Linux, not being able to buy a proper OS after buying an M1 Macbook. Pathetic.

        I understand that the people who can’t afford a proper OS (like Apple macOS) have to keep using Linux because of no alternatives… this doesn’t mean that you should insult people who have the means to afford it, though… Don’t be sad

        I use both arch && macOs though ;)
