oh great, yet another platform that will use free software to restrict what people can do with their computing devices 🤮
how is this supposed to be a good thing? 🙄
I’m not sure how this is in any way different from android? Android is free software they use to restrict the computing they devices they sell to push more ads and junkware. This is just a different one. Amazon sucks, so I don’t see what move they could make that could be seen as positive. Just don’t buy their garbage devices.
With any luck they'll probably introduce some new exploits to free up the device.
I am in dire need of decent linux smartphones that aren't android. Can Valve just get to it please?

Well you see, it makes rich people more money.
