The use-case of Libreboot is that it replaces the mysterious computer bios with software that is completely FOSS. It is highly suspected that every computer made after 2008 has government backdoors built into the hardware.
Libreboot is not a Linux distro, it is a bios replacement.
What are the benefits of using Libreboot?
Hexbear users love to talk about tech literacy, then why can't Hexbears see the use case for a FOSS bios replacement? I didn't think there would be a need to explain it.
Why does everyone expect me to have known the tech competency level of a specific Hexbear poster? I'm not parasocial like that.
Why mention it on this specific post? the t480s is one of the few computers that is compatible with Libreboot.
