Librecore is a new project aiming to be a new Coreboot downstream with a focus remaining on providing fully-free system firmware. Librecore was formed due to "[Libreboot lead developer Leah Rowe] alienating large portions of the community, plus the stagnant and hard to use libreboot firmware and build system." With Librecore, they are aiming to use industry-standard tools and build environments. Another different design decision is pursuing Petitboot as the payload for a more modern and useful interface over GRUB as a payload.

This was posted on Reddit.

The same link.

One of the developers said this was a lie.

It has nothing to do with libreboot or leah and they do not inted to do something like that.

If anything it is similar to owncloud-nextcloud.

They use to work on Coreboot, don't like how things are going and drop.

It is not intended in anyway to be an alternative to libreboot.

"Michael I'll give it to you straight here: I am one of the core developers of librecore and I can confidently say everything you wrote in your article about our project is complete speculative garbage.

The librecore and libreboot projects are completely independent projects that have no relationship **what-so-ever**. The librecore project is a fork from coreboot by some original coreboot developers such as myself with different technical objectives.

So thanks for going and conflating the two projects and making a load of political crap up that has nothing to do with our project and potentially destroying the image of our project by completely misrepresenting why we exist.

Hopefully it won't be too complicated to install.
I had enough headaches with Libreboot already (with still some minor unresolved issues).
And that's without external flashing.

Not sure I'd switch. Wait and see.
