Linux was created by a Finnish student, Linus Torvalds, stating in a typically humble manner of Finns that it "won't be anything big and professional".
Replacing for example Windows with Linux means user freedom.

Sure - that is one way to see it. But there are surprisingly many ppl who cannot find their home in any of the free as in freedom browsers - and still want to use a PC computer - so there's that.
Nothing prevents discovering other options later on - as the time goes by - and information about sorts of things you're talking about and are important to YOU, increase.

Basically there are just choices for pretty much everyone. If Vivaldi (for example) is the one making someone *looking for automatic AI:less browser* sticking with Linux - it's worth to put there innit.
Have not heard much bad at all about Vivaldi either...

There are many options and browsers (plus their teams) are prone to grow.
Ladybird and Servo based ones in development then again provide a whole new ground. Happening already possibly next year.

a statement from Waterfox team:
"... browsers are operating systems of their own, and a browser’s job is to be a good steward of that environment. AI, in its current form and in my opinion does not match that responsibility.
... The core browsing experience should be one that fully puts the user in control, not one where you’re constantly monitoring an inscrutable system that claims to be helping you.
Waterfox will not include LLMs. Full stop."

a statement from Vivaldi team:
"Today, as other browsers race to build AI that controls how you experience the web, we are making a clear promise:
We’re taking a stand, choosing humans over hype, and we will not turn the joy of exploring into inactive spectatorship. Without exploration, the web becomes far less interesting."

a statement from LibreWolf team:
"As there seems to have been recent confusion about this, just a quick "official" toot to then pin: we haven't and won't support "generative AI" related stuff in LibreWolf. If you see some features like that (like Perplexity search recently, or the link preview feature now) it is solely because it "slipped through". As soon as we become aware of something like this / it gets reported to us, we will remove/disable it ASAP."

Firefox derived does not mean "equals Mozilla Firefox" - since Firefox itself is open source; forks can rip out anything they want and go "clean".

Valve is persuading the HDMI Forum to allow open source support for HDMI 2.1 on Linux (SteamOS) without restrictions 💫
This video standard brawl isn't a do-or-die problem for the Steam Machine - most won’t even notice.
The HDMI Forum holds Linux gaming back artificially tho. Society could just drop HDMI, adopting free'er DisplayPort where common sense is missing 😉
If Valve succeeds towards '26 - it'll be a huge victory for all.

Ok, so China is not a problem for your company for these parts.
Can you give examples for kinds of work you do in your company with this equipment in your company?
You would *possibly* make an additional buck as an attraction too, for those wanting to see 100% open software / hardware company in action in your daily routine?
This is *very* rare if all you state is 100% accurate in this free as in total freedom usage in every aspect.

Additionally - you have chosen Debian (which is not endorsed by Free Software Foundation that you appear to follow strictly) - it includes non-free software repositories and non-free firmware in its installation media by default.
Why not, as in your view, choose a more free as in freedom distro to begin with? By default you need to alter the default Debian installation image, making your own? Yet there are already those (such as Trisquel) without any stuff you cannot accept.

So what all you guys use - whereas you supposedly don't have to accept anything of that sort? Build your own or what?

What about that usability in means of daily driving? What is your guess on that factor. You mentioned LineageOS GrapheneOS, /e/OS.
Oh, and the GUI you refer to is not 100% proprietary - it is only the last bastion to be opened. Indeed SailfishOS is about 95% open at this point (also recently more things were opened) so they don't *intentionally* keep any things closed.

What are these "some AOSP-derived OS's" you refer to? And what is their functionality compared to SailfishOS in daily drive for regular people as alternative? What do you think? I suppose you can only research (via other people near you or so) as you don't own or use anything what is being discussed here.
As said - SailfishOS is already ~95% open source / the main part remaining is the Silica UI (graphical user interface).

What mostly remains to be completely opened in the big picture is the Silica UI (so the graphical user interface).
Jolla has stated that they could open source it when they've more established market space, so from marketing standpoint there is no point releasing the code too early (?). And this is "only" a graphical UI.
This is the only true independent alternative that one can just buy with pretty much all there by default for common everyday use. Android app compatibility a must.

Sailfish OS is NOT 100% closed source, as some still claim it to be. Jolla has also promised that the REMAINING blobs will be opened. There are good reasons for this situation.
95% of Sailfish OS bases on free / open source software. The OS itself utilize Linux kernel (which is open source). Mer that was used is open-source. Qt Framework API's base on open-source Qt API's.

Jolla Phone matters more than ever.
Every Android phone, every iPhone; your data, habits, convos: processed, analyzed, stored on someone else's terms.
Jolla spent 12 years in wilderness keeping Sailfish OS alive through die-hard community.
Next to them mobile OS graveyard filled up with names like Symbian, MeeGo, Firefox OS, Windows Phone - Jolla survived.
• Physical privacy switch (kill cam/mic)
• Replaceable battery
• Android app compatibility (practical)

But hang on not much longer for final word:

🐧Steam Machine price speculation gathers steam / let's add a bit 🤫
◉Apple's known for price gouging, yes. Even their Mac Mini is ~$500 is it not.
◉ RedDragon makes mini PC for $499 /w specs close to Steam Machine - does Valve have any big reason setting the price much more than $499?
◉ Steam's record revenue prolly helps Valve to lower the final price. Special deal with AMD.
Priced as a PC is stated. Then again consoles aren't priced like game consoles no more.

More like what to consider in this equation is driver support for your hardware.

Zoom Platform is an alternative DRM-free game store | Heroic Games Launcher to support it for extra convenience ✅
...And nooo don't confuse it with that video conferencing thingy.... Sometimes these naming choices....
Maybe we'll have itch.io on Heroic soon too for a wonderful one spot experience to these lesser known DRM-free choices 🙏

☕ Speaking of anticheat / how some say "you can't play online multiplayer titles on Linux" - *you can* - but not ALL yet (not Linux' fault) 🚧
Game examples working /w anticheat on Linux:
Sea of Thieves
Red Dead Redemption Online
CS2
Helldivers 2
Overwatch 2
The Finals
Halo Infinite
Ark Survival Evolved
War Thunder
Squad
Arma 3 / Reforger
Dota 2
Titanfall
Battlefront 2
WoW
Guild Wars 2
Albion Online
Risky kernel-level anticheat should go anyhoo.

Final frontier for Linux gaming's unseen levels? Kernel-level anticheat ❌
However; kernel-level ac isn't as crushingly common as painted out to be.
◉ ~10-15% of multiplayer games use kernel-level AC.
◉ All PC games lumped in (single-player) the usage is in the spheres of ~4%.
Kernel-level ac: full control over the system / its information - ultimate rootkit. Another way is needed - be it Linux OR Windows. It is not worth the risk just to play a game?
