Ututo XS: what about non-free software

5 replies [Last post]

Today I'm launching Ututo XS from Live USB. I saw these issues:
0. PlayOnGNU/Linux — recommends non-free fonts and supports non-free software.
1. Chromium — spying?
Maybe FSF should recheck this disto?
And what is better — support this distro or fork it?

2. Post from stas730 -- FUD? Trolling?

In all seriousness, PlayOnLinux is nothing more than a front-end for Wine. It doesn't raise valid ethical concerns, it's just useless.

Like upstream Winetricks and unlike Wine, PlayOn(GNU/)Linux should raise
concerns.

It may still be trolling because:
- Do they ship PlayOnLinux without patches to get rid of nonfree
recommendations? I don’t know, in particular:
- Does Ututo even exist anymore? Apparently not.

My last question before installation (I will try to install Ututo XS soon): How to change installer language from Spanish to English/Russian/Ukrainian?

Does Utoto have PlayOnLinux installed by default?

Yes.
