The following is a list of [firmware](firmware.md), [operating systems](os.md) and software tools that can be used to liberate freedom-friendly proprietary devices:
- **[coreboot](coreboot.md)**: "Open source" replacement for proprietary [BIOS](bios.md) in personal computers. For higher compatibility coreboot includes proprietary [binary blobs](binary_blob.md) for devices that require them, in a similar fashion to [Linux](linux.md), and so coreboot is not 100% free -- libreboot tries to fix this.
- **[libreboot](libreboot.md)**: Completely free version of coreboot, with proprietary blobs removed. However this very much limits the list of libreboot compatible devices.
- **[coreboot](coreboot.md), [libreboot](libreboot.md), [GNU boot](gnu_boot.md), [nonGeNUine Boot](nongenuine_boot.md) etc.**: More or less libre replacements for proprietary [BIOS](bios.md) in personal computers. Different projects here take different roads and tolerate different amounts of non-free binary blobs, just as different [Linux](linux.md) distros, so check out each one to pick whichever you like best.
- **[librerpi](librerpi.md)**: Libre boot firmware for [RPI](rpi.md).
- **[PostmarketOS](postmarketos.md)**: Mobile [GNU](gnu.md)/[Linux](linux.md) distribution that can be used to liberate smartphones.
- **[Replicant](replicant.md)**: Fork of [Android](android.md) mobile OS that replaces proprietary components with free software, can be used to liberate smartphones, though it is still [bloat](bloat.md).
