     What'll make it interesting is all of the background I want to get into, my reasons by themselves are not interesting at all

     You should write a blog post about why you don't use GNU Linux-libre.

     Do you have any reason beyond "It's foss"?
     
     One half of the Linux community seems fine to accept sub-standard software as long as it follows their exact philosophy.
     
     It's like vegans. Sure you *can* roughly do everything that a non-FOSS system can do but... it really will impact your quality of life from what I'v eseen. I accept some cows are mistreated (Windows) but that does not mean I can't enjoy others who have been given a better life (Linux)
     
     I'm happy to simply have a community maintained operating system which is more actively developed than the alternatives, what specific licenses get ascribed to that I don't really give a shit about as long as the software is good.
     
     Would I kill myself if I couldn't walk? Probably not but I'd lament that I could no longer hike.
     
     TL;DR
     
     Help me understand why you'd use (what seems to be) a far inferior operating system (if not just because it's FOSS)
