@jeder worse than Debian? I'm still happy that while the docs and some people will disapprove at you it lets you do it if you want...

@katnjiapus like, if you wanted to get any proprietary stuff, you need to get rpmfusion

@jeder for me no one will ever beat Parabola Linux, which has a package named "your-freedom" with a conflict dependency with all the proprietary packages, so you need to remove it before installing anything proprietary

@jeder imo, being able to knowingly give up parts of your freedom is part of freedom itself.

@fleckenstein it is not freedom when it's forced on you, the fine print does not count as giving it up knowingly

@jeder im saying that preventing users from installing nonfree software is taking away their freedom to give up parts of their freedom when they want to, so i agree with you

btw, I like the idea of a "ACCEPT_LICENSE" variable like gentoo has, or some graphical alternative to that
