I don't have any RISCV hardware yet but I've been following the ISA since it was first announced, it's been awesome seeing how much it has grown in the last few years!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Indeed. I have been following news about RISC-V for about a year. Not very attentively but I like what I hear about it. Started to learn more deeply about it about a month ago when our colleagues at ESA started to talk a lot about it and using it even more. Anyways I think we very much need more freedom and openness also in the hardware departments and look forward to a day when I will be running a PC with RSIC-V CPU in it.
