- Including Unix and BSD.

PEOPLE! start using entirely freedom distributions of gnu-linux like pureOS or trisquel trisquel is the version of ubuntu without proprietary blurbs.
100% freedom software https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html
DragoraGNU/Linux-Libre, an independent GNU/Linux distribution based on concepts of simplicity.
Dyne:bolic a GNU/Linux distribution with special emphasis on audio and video editing. This is a “static” distro, normally run from a live CD. Since it will not receive security updates, it should be used offline.
guix Guix System, an advanced GNU/Linux distro built on top of GNU Guix (pronounced “geeks”), a purely functional package manager for the GNU system.
Hyperbola Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre, a long-term support simplicity-focused distribution based on Arch GNU/Linux.
Parabola GNU/Linux-libre, a distribution based on Arch that prioritizes simple package and system management.
PureOS, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian with a focus on privacy, security, and convenience.
Trisquel, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Ubuntu that's oriented toward small enterprises, domestic users and educational centers.
Ututo, a GNU/Linux 100% free distribution. It was the first fully free GNU/Linux system recognized by the GNU Project.
I agree with your message of freedom, but please space out your text so it isn't just a big wall. And don't recommend distros like Guix, Hyperbola or Parabola to beginners, please...
If you're a beginner and your hardware supports Linux-Libre, use Trisquel.
And I agree with your message of spacing out text
