This is a Lemmy community created to discuss all things Libreboot. As you can tell, it’s quite empty here, so please feel welcome to fill it up with your experiences of Libreboot.
I’ve created this community to do my part and help the migration from Reddit to Lemmy. Lemmy isn’t perfect, but it’s closer to Libreboot’s spirit than Reddit is. That’s what I think, anyway.
No problems! I feel like you could look into coreboot, but I really don’t know much about it. FWIW, I’m personally optimistic that RISC-V, being both open-source and a real competitor to the chip cartels, might lead us to a world where we can yet again have modern hardware that’s truly privacy-respecting.
Until then, it’s libreboot. Still, FWIW, I personally use a linux laptop with coreboot on it, running an 11th Gen Intel i7. Hoping to libreboot an old ThinkPad I got my hands on soon, just as an experiment. The goal is to fully move to that one as a daily driver – we’ll see.
I think my next laptop will be one preloaded with coreboot or libreboot, been eyeing something from the system76 lineup. Until then I’m stuck with this MSI gaming laptop lol
