Libreboot has built images with nonfree binary blobs since November of 2022. Examples include:
>The Intel ME (ran through me_cleaner)
>CPU Microcode
>Intel MRC and FSP
>EC firmware
>VGA option ROMs
>Thunderbolt firmware
i.e, everything you would want a free BIOS/UEFI to remove. Canoeboot is supposed to be what Libreboot was before the rugpull, as
>a vocal minority of users still demanded such a project exist as the old Libreboot did
THOUGH it's arguably worse. On boards that still need an ME to function, it doesn't run me_cleaner at all. It only flips the HAP bit, which is a register added by intel which only promises to disable the ME after bring-up.
Technical concerns aside, the developer is also a proud tranny pedophile. Xhe has a personal website if you'd like to see what makes xer axewound leak
https://vimuser.org/ (rare vimDIETY fail)
Linked there is also a website with a large amount of information regarding trooning out, including (((an article encouraging children to buy puberty blockers online and how to do it)))
https://trans.chat/children.html
>But how else should I build my BIOS/UEFI
Coreboot already has it's own system that gives you much more control and upstream support. It's not a preconfigured solution and requires what some call tinkertrannying, but you WILL fork Canoeboot if this bothers you.

Forgot to link Coreboot's build instructions

idc about blobs so much but leahboot is literally just a prebuild on coreboot geg
i'm sure MrChromebox has a shitload of documentation on how to wrangle coreboot from upstream too, considering he actually fucking contribes, unlike leah over here

Would you say having libreboot is worse than the stock bios?

I care fan about this but I'm not smart enough to know about the different bootloaders. How do you even change the bootloader of an OS?

Bootloaders are part of an OS and are different
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Bootloader
We are talking about UEFI/BIOS firmware. UEFI is the new proper term for a BIOS, but most people just say BIOS. But both of these projects also support pre-UEFI boards. To change UEFI firmware, some boards have flashing utilities but sometimes an external programmer that clips onto the chip that stores it like picrel is needed

Weighing evils is apathetic and breeds half measures
>Kikeboot vs Troonboot
It's binary black box vs bastardized opensource project full of smaller black boxes that is solely maintained by a tranny who could easily throw away any semblance of reputation to pwn a soyteen like you
