FSF certification is just one way to indicate freedom. People may not care about it but they do care about freedom.

FSF certification is just one way to indicate freedom. People may not care about it but they do care about freedom.
FSF has a very strict idea about what constitutes freedom which many people that care about freedom do not share. Hence, people can care about freedom, and not care about FSF certifications or even opinions.
It's true. And you shifted the discussion from general freedom to FSF-certification. I used the latter as just example of how to define freedom and not as the only benefit of Librem 5. People certainly care about freedoms it can provide.
I didn't shift the discussion. You asked why people were not caring about FSF-endorsed operating systems for phones. I said because people don't care about FSF endorsements.
You kept trying to defend that, if you had clarified earlier and asked why people were ignoring FLOSS phones, my response would have been different.
