The support is clearly not as good. I got into an argument few 
month ago with some debian maintainers. The topic was that it was 
impossible to compile wine on a machine with the nvidia drivers. 
I came up with the issue, and even a fix, a receive basically a 
GTFO, we don't care about making a soft to run non free software 
using non free driver.

I took several month (maybe more than a year) for the issue to be 
solved, in a very similar manner to what I proposed in the first 
place. I'm not the only one that had similar issues.

Debian is not per se against non free, but some maintainers are, 
and it does matter.
