Because I can modify my software, submit patches and argue with maintainers. But my love for FSF peaks when I license my own projects as GPL3/AGPL3 and people complain that it's discriminatory to porkies.

There was a community project to build a DAW on top of SuperCollider the same way emacs is built upon a lisp system— the whole DAW would be an interface to scsynth, with sclang as the scripting language. Given how most Linux audio software just (poorly) tries to copy its proprietary inspirations, this would have been something unique and keeping with the ethos of free software. I was just dicking around with supercollider and thought back to it but can't seem to find it anywhere.

It is the purest form of freedom yet attained by man
>Which Free Software do you love?
The number of free programs out there is as boundless as the grains of sand on a beach, and I love almost all of them. I love cool cutting edge/developmental software (GNU Hurd, GNUnet, Spritely Project, openXR, Arcan, IPFS), I love workhorse software that I use daily (KDE, Firefox, Linux, BTRFS, NFS), I love funny meme software (psdoom, supertux, supertuxkart, fortune, cowsay, sl), I love games (minetest, endless sky, unciv, mindustry, veloren, vircadia), I love exotic conceptual software (plan9, templeos, inferno, genode, barrelfish), I love powerful wizardy software (emacs, org-mode, nyxt, nix, guix), I love software I haven't tried but looks interesting (various WMs like awesome, gnustep, i3, suckless, matrix, nextcloud), I love reliable and feature rich utilities (GNU recutils, GNU stow, yt-dlp), i love creative software (psychosynth, ardour, stochas, mixxx, pipewire, linux studio plugins, vital synth), i love convenience software (shin, touchegg, darkreader, git-annex, homeassistant, openstreetmaps, ublock, sponsorblock, xclip), I love privacy software (tor, monero, macchanger, qubes, pfblocker), I love software that I want to create someday

Linux is fine but I honestly wish the GNU project went with the BSD kernel.
