I don't think it's possible to use modern bluetooth or wifi anymore without mystery blobs
I'm already using one that doesn't require proprietary firmware, but it's Bluetooth version 1.1 which it has its limitations
Yeah I wouldn't call 1.1 modern. For wifi it's nothing since wifi 4
I am not sure if it required a blob or not but I use an ASUS USB-BT500 on my Arch system and I only installed the bluez package for it to work (and bluedevil for the GUI on KDE).
