Also, about Linux distros, Huawei recently made their own independent OS with their own kernel.

Yes, it would be cool if CPC made their own fork of LibreOffice and endorsed it instead if WPC.

I have one for a few years and I’m quite satisfied with it. As long as you really need an e-ink tablet, boox is the way to go.

A Chinese capitalist asshole is a capitalist asshole that can be controlled. A German non-profit is an actor that’s totally out of control.

A piece of free software that’s developed by an organization under control of a socialist state would be better, yes. But with what is already there, I’m not surprised what was the lesser evil from perspective of CPC.

Why would they choose a product owned by a German non-profit over a product owned by a Chinese company?
