You can ask @lxo about it, but my guess is that they do not care about it unless there's factual and irrefutable evidence that such code breaks or makes GPLv2 enforcement inconvenient in any capacity.

Why would you expect them to care about it in any way? Linux-libre is about GPLv2 compliance, nothing more, nothing less.

Everything about Mastodon stinks of "open source" corporate sabotage; they can't compete with Fediverse because Fediverse culture is all about people having brain and socializing, whereas their culture degenerated to become the antithesis of that, it's why blocklists are a widespread cancer and why you see those retards eager to find people to bitch about and block, their minds are so rotten by capitalist social media that they can't comprehend nor wish to comprehend how a healthy social space looks like.

Mastodon did unimaginable harm to Fediverse and will keep doing harm for the coming decades.

By the time Linux dies amd64 will be so proprietary that Shitdroid will be heaven by comparison.

Give it a decade before EFI begins getting hypervisors, always-online identification and restricted boot with all this age verification governments keep pushing.

What good can be GNU if you can't even boot it unless FAGMAN or Big Brother allow you to? And if it ever boots it'll be on a VM.

The year is 2057, some shithole on the West. amd64 hardware now comes bundled with baked-in EFI specifications that now include a full network stack, filesystem support, multi-user account support and an absolutely proprietary and misery-box hypervisor. You can't remove this software as it's designed in such a way from factory that hardware bricks if you even dare to reflash it.

The process to install an operating system now requires online identification as soon as you turn on the device and EFI starts running, using a state or corporate provided and approved account bound to your real identity. Once you're identified with an online account the EFI allows a specific selection of operating systems to spin and install on a virtual machine that runs on top of the EFI's hypervisor, all of them verified and signed by Big Brother.

This is not a thing today, the laws being pushed now regarding age identity and verification are written by illiterates, but I'm sure we'll be getting something similar to this once governments figure out how they can "protect kids online" when some big tech codemonkey eager to get extra bucks explains them how to do this effectively.

That being said, don't you think this will make GNU and any other free operating system effectively pointless?

At the same time this announcement looks like a gay & cheap PR stunt while they also show zero commitment to their political stance which is supposed to be something these bands make a big deal about.

If they truly cared about politics they would've cancelled everything and give the finger to those that get pissed about it.

AUR was a mistake and it's even worse than even Winblows installers. Whenever you hear "malware" and "Linux" in the same sentence it's always AUR, snap or flatpaks.

Ah yes by the way, a quick question. Would you recommend aspiring gun-nuts get a Hi-Point YC9 (improved version) as their first low-budget handgun?
