I’m sorry, what? You are trying to tell me that caring about free software is misinformation now? You can read about why open source misses the point here https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.en.html
I respect your option but calling anything you disagree with misinformation is unprofessional at best.
Open source gives you all the freedoms that free software gives. So it factually equates. You are also spreading the misinformation that F-Droid guarantees that the software there is 100% libre even when it is an external repo. Totally wrong.

When did I say that? Are you stupid?
You can’t convince people when you are just repeating what Stallman says without understanding it.
There is no completely free software, even if you take out the Intel ME (which is a very bad idea as it’ll leave you super vulnerable) The Intel chip will never be open source or FOSS at a hardware level. Even RISC-5 being open still has trust issues. Unless you setup a chip fab you’re at the helm of someone. And as the closed source hardware runs the open source software, is it really free?
Therefore we shouldn’t even try? I do my best to steer clear of proprietary software.
Like everything in life it’s about balance, using too much foss software and hardware could put you in much more risk, while using proprietary software won’t give you the control or privacy you want. Once again foss software is great, but it is not perfect and should not be treated as such.
