@nyx @dushman @SuperDicq Pretty sure the linux kernel actually doesn't have blobs but only software to support blobs (which are nicely separated in linux-firmware).
Like GNU likely hates the shit out of LVFS/fwupd but damn, you can finally update the bios and USB peripherals without weird workarounds, some of them involved booting up fucking windows. (And it also means that creating libre alternatives is easier as the infra is libre, you need to take steps)
