Id say around 80% since I use a lot of foss programs and only use linux/android/openwrt/brother printers. The other 20% is random proprietary stuff like steam I guess to be generous.

Ages ago someone wrote a bash script that would calculate your "stallman score", essentially checking the license of every package in your system.

Goun ,

Well, we need that back!

stsquad ,

It’s called vrms (virtual RMS) and Debian at least packages it.

chevy9294 ,

7 out of 705 installed packages are non-free packages on my RPi server.

superkret ,

It’s called check-dfsg-status since Stallmann stepped down after his controversial statements in Minsky’s Epstein scandal.

As much as I can get it, and more every year.

All my computers run Linux exclusively. Gaming desktop, personal laptop, Steam Deck, work laptop, and all my servers in my home lab.

Hypervisor is XCP-ng, VMs are a mix of Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and some random other Linux distros for testing and experimenting.

My NAS is a TrueNAS Core box.

I’m in the process of switching my router to PFSense.

Phone is a Pixel 6a with GrapheneOS.

Email, VPN, and cloud storage is Proton.

Password manager is Bit Warden.

Office docs are all Libre Office & Only Office.

The only non-FOSS software I use constantly is Discord and Steam, and of course, most of the games I play. On my phone I have majority FOSS apps for everyday stuff, but some things are still proprietary.

FlappyBubble ,

Seems you also use a bit of freeBSD in your setup besides Linux. Still FOSS though!

What are you recommendation of decent NAS with freeBSD?

ryannathans ,

Truenas core is dead, long live freebsd

possiblylinux127 ,

Mostly

I still have Intel WiFi and a phone which requires firmware to work correctly.

I also recently installed Lego star wars in Bottles for fun. I also use the web a lot which uses non free JavaScript.

Petter1 ,

😮😮 JS is non-free?

Laser ,

The engine probably is free, but the code it runs often is not.

@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

isnt all JS technically code-available though?

so at least we have that going for it.

Laser ,

Even then, it might be minified or even obfuscated

A good 90% I’d say. All my devices run Linux (NixOS laptop, Ubuntu server, LineageOS phone).

Non-FOSS stuff:

  • AMD GPU in my Framework 16 laptop means the only unfree package on my laptop is Steam.
  • The proprietary apps I do run on my phone are TooGoodToGo and my bank as I’m not aware of alternatives.
  • I wear a Pebble Time Steel smartwatch, also not aware of any alternatives.
  • PS5 controller firmware has no replacement.

I don’t browse the surface web a lot and when I do I tend to disable JS, so I avoid most of the nonfree JS. I have no social media accounts besides Mastodon, Matrix, and Lemmy, which are all free :)

As an extension, all my close family runs Linux on their computers, as it ended up being lower maintenance than setting them up with Windows when time came to upgrade.

possiblylinux127 ,

For watches you can use the Pine time or BangleJS. The Banglejs doesn’t do as well in terms of privacy and freedom but it is better than nothing.

As for banking I usually do it either in person or on there website.

ISOmorph ,

How would BangleJs be worse in terms of privacy? You can run both with gadgetbridge, so no cloud data necessary.

I wore a Pinetime for a while, sadly the touchscreen can’t beat the Pebble’s buttons. I’d buy a Pinetime with buttons and a non-touch reflective LCD in a heartbeat though! I was looking at BangleJS or Watchy as replacements but I’m really unsure about the durability and how usable they’d be (I need just the time and notifications, maps/navigation is a big plus tho).

ProgrammingSocks ,

Nearly 100%. All Linux and AMD. The biggest part that isn’t is BIOS. As far as programs go I can think of almost nothing I use that isn’t FOSS. I guess Discord.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Like sub 10% maybe.

Phone 1: iPhone

Phone 2: Android (pixel 4, stock rom)

Desktop 1: Windows

Desktop 2: Mac OS

Laptop 1: Windows

Laptop 2: Mac OS.

Laptop 3: Windows/KDE Neon, no attention paid to whether or not the drivers are foss.

Server: Proxmox with Debian and Truenas VMs.

Router: pfSense.

I just use what works for me, and what license the software uses is not at all a factor in that choice.

Petter1 ,

Is there a reason to us pfsense insteaof opnsense?

flying_gel ,

1 FreeBSD server with zfs mirror for storage and various server software

1 FreeBSD laptop for development

1 Linux laptop for software that doesn’t support FreeBSD

1 Linux desktop for work.

The rest of the family is 100% windows though :/

chevy9294 ,

On my main profile on GrapheneOS there are 7 closed source apps and 1 self build technically closed source (for now) all out of total 71 apps.

Got multiple machines, but I think my most FOSS setup is a corebooted Thinkpad X230. The ME firmware was stripped, leaving it non-functional after the initialization. I replaced the WiFi card with an Atheros one that doesn’t require non-free firmware. The GPU is by Intel Ivy Bridge, so no need for proprietary driver. Currently running Debian on it.

With that said, there are some components I couldn’t get by:

  • the EC firmware is pretty much a blackbox, even though I was able to unlock some part to make it work with aftermarket batteries
  • the graphic ROM may still be proprietary (gonna have to recheck what my machine got currently) – FOSS is an option as well but with less support
  • even though non-functional, the ME is still on – god knows what this thing does exactly
  • CPU microcode

The rest of the components are pretty well-documented by the community if not by the OEMs themselves.

I would put 95% for this specific setup. However, if counting everything I got, not even close, as I need some proprietary components for living.

For example, my company gave me a newer Thinkpad to do work, which thankfully I got to install Linux on. I still have to run enterprise stuff from time to time, most of which are far from FOSS.

And don’t get me started on tax form submission.

superkret ,

I run bone stock default Fedora.

GravitySpoiled ,

95% paypal, linguee and banking apps

airikr ,

Linux on all my computers and GrapheneOS on my Google Pixel 6a with 99.8% FOSS applications. Maybe 96% FOSS softwares on my stationary computer and 100% on my laptops.

yo_scottie_oh ,

With GrapheneOS do you still get the same quality photos as you would with the stock OS?

airikr ,

I use Open Camera and the quality is very good. Especially the night mode! What you see with your eyes in a dark room with the TV on, that’s what you will see in the photo. Not the same quality on the TV in the photo, of course, but very close.

Cyber ,

Just a +1 for Open Camera - it’s a great bit of software.

airikr ,

Indeed. Far the best camera for Android I’ve ever used. Kinda addicted to the timestamp/watermark/something, though, haha! Mighty good feature!

It’s just the firmware, my work-necessary programs, and steam.

I love arch, but i’m planning on moving to atomic fedora eventually, but I use a bunch of niche things because i’m an early adopter

i’ll switch to fedora atomic when pwvucontrol, tofi, hyprland, hyprland-autoname-workspaces, citrix workspace (work necessary), notiflut-land, bato, wljoywake, wayland-pipewire-idle-inhibit, ananicy-cpp, easyeffects, wl-mirror, gtk3-classic, keyd, iwgtk, qtalarm, kvantum and subliminal are all available, haven’t checked which are yet

couple of those (pwvucontrol and notiflut-land) aren’t even in the AUR yet so it’ll be a while.
