    Hello!

    How about write review of GNU recommended free distros?
    What I mean is list of distros on the WWW page: <https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.en.html>.
    Maybe not all of them, but perhaps 3 most popular "free distros" will be worth of cover in your review. It is just interesting idea, not any form of lobbying. Now I do not use any these distros. But I use Trisquel in the past and it was good. But I want to setup USB TV grabber, and it require kernel blobs, so I switch to Kubuntu. My USB TV failed (it was burn, due to active antenna high voltage), but I stay with Kubuntu.
    Interesting is that on the list appear new distro: PureOS. It is commercial, but follow GNU free recommendations. Maybe this distro will be interesting to cover in your review.
