I expect the wifi will not work but will everything else work if you install trisquel? Thank you.
I looked at their computers once and:
A: they dont use coreboot or libreboot
B: they don't have a libre wifi card.
Its probably better to get novacustom.
it least that has dasharo and intel me is disabled.
Don't take advice from people on Trisquel.info about where to buy computers, people are destroying the computers of people trying to use free software and avoiding proprietary firmware, and they are misleading them to make purchases at fake companies.
Use a reputable source of information fsf.org
Don't listen to these people, they constantly mislead others.

Its very hard to read what you just wrote, it feels like you typed a run on sentence and I couldn't understand ot/
Also btw, no one is misleading anyone.
No one should use a computer with a backdoor that has network stack.
That is why Coreboot + intel me disabled was something I suggested.
FSF.org's info is incomplete btw too.
Canoeboot devices are considered libre by the FSF anyhow.
No need to stick to gnuboot stuff only.
I should also add, technoethical is on the list and shouldn't be trusted because they have been known to have bad practices of not sending the goods people ordered for a long time now.
Aka, you pay them and they don't ship your product. Do not trust such a seller!
Vikings is however trustworthy as is libiquity assuming they still exist
EDIT: seems libiquity.com is gone but vikings.net is still around.

Wi-Fi will indeed not work. I bet neither will Bluetooth. I do not know about the state of the support AMD integrated graphics by libre drivers. People advising for AMD usually use non-free drivers. Years ago, I remember people on this forum who could not even get a proper resolution with that brand of GPU.
I recently installed Trisquel 12 on a 13th-generation Intel processor and its integrated UHD graphics work well out of the box... although, out of curiosity, I temporarily added the binary firmware and the frame rate on SuperTuxKart was visibly higher. https://libre.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/penguin-t4-gnulinux-laptop sold by ThinkPenguin, which cares about the freedom of its users, includes a 13th-generation Intel processor and is promised to entirely work (Wi-Fi included) out of the box with Trisquel, that ThinkPenguin can install for you.
I wanted to buy a laptop with a bigger screen, 17
but didn´t find one in the free software/hardwary companies.
So I bought one at Tuxedo:
TUXEDO InfinityBook S 17 Gen6
CPU: 11th Gen Intel i7-11390H (8) @ 5.000GHz
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics
Memory: 2544MiB / 64097MiB
CPU: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11390H @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 62,6 GiB of usable RAM
Graphics: Mesa Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics
It is a strong one, but was expensive with 2 SSDs.
I don´t need WiFi, I am using Ethernet
I can switch off IME (intel management engine), that was important for me.
So my only problem is the proprietary boot.
But what should I do??
This was in the beginning of my journey with free software...
