Reread what I said. I’m just shitting on the religion, not the project.

That "GNU" religion you call it has been able to speed up computing like no time else.

Android have been enshitifying the last releases on encryption and privacy. Ironically Replicant 6 (libred Android 6.0) has more settings for that than the current Android 12.

On Chrome OS, it's just a shell to Google services. Put these services down, no your device it's 75% useless.

On PS, it's just a DRM -potentially-brickable-without-internet- console, and I 've had more fun overall with 8-16 bit games on a EEPROM based device (technically not a computing device, it's everything hardware, so it's fine), than the current DRM locked consoles with 'always-online' features making them useless too when your ISP goes down. At least with a ROM burned handheld I can play games anywhere and any time.

Yeah none of this has to do with the GNU religion. Every word of this can be addressed with or without GNU.

You should be answering to OP, not me.

HN, where people quick fire answer to comments without reading the threads properly, alongside lack of English compreehension.
