You see, hexbear has been moving towards :tux: for quite a while now and it's scaring the :LIB:s and the :fedposting:s so expect a lot of anti-Linux posting and just nod your head and don't engage :penguin-dance:

      Huh. Typically if I'm buying a wireless adapter, I'll quickly google "<adapter model> linux" and if i see bad things I pick another. I've only bought two adapters in the last decade though, one a pci model for like 40 bucks.

          I mean it is very fair to want to try it out on what you have, and I'm sorry you had some pain in the ass hardware.

        if you want ones that don't require "binary blobs" to work, atheros chips are the ones to look for.
