    If you are that concerned about firmware modern hardware is not your friend. Everything from your CPU to WiFi to integrated graphics requires proprietary software

      I mean, that doesn’t really have to do with modern hardware. CPU’s need a blob in the bios since like forever. Also you don’t need any proprietary firmware on the os for a cpu
