Purism makes premium phones, laptops, mini PCs and servers running free software on PureOS. Purism products respect people's privacy and freedom while protecting their security.
I’m all in for paying to fund development but if they wanna make this work, they need to make some “nice to have features” for the premium version, paying monthly for an OS is pretty unconventional
If you’re on Linux chances are using a package manager. Do you think the package maintainers won’t compile the features(well maybe, Debian)? It still makes no sense as most users would have the feature anyway.
Is this the Linux premium subscription, we were all waiting for? So we get access to a terminal emulator for our money?

Everything they do is open source, artificially holding back features doesn’t make sense.
if we assume that everyone knows how to compile from source, or use Github then yeah it doesn’t make sense
