GNU enjoyers are hostile towards proprietary software branded as "libre", who would have thought?
@icedquinn >fsf likes to friendly fire a lot
I only like to shoot at proprietary software, therefore anything I like shooting at cannot possibly be friendly.
>oh no your distro allows someone to use a computer mouse with closed firmware jihad now
What are you even on about?
The free system guidelines requirements are that the system is 100% free software (and any mistakes are corrected within a reasonable time-frame), the system doesn't recommend proprietary software (this includes avoiding naming proprietary software in the documentation if there's no good reason to name it) and not restricting the software that the user can run (this includes permitting the user to install proprietary malware if they choose to - as all free systems don't restrict what you can install).
It's a sad fact that most computer mouses technically run software that is proprietary, but GNU realizes that currently there's bigger priorities at the moment, but welcomes free peripheral software from mouses if someone writes it.
