You have this freedom. It is known as "compiling from sources". In fact GNU/Linux is the only big OS/ecosystem where you have this freedom.

But like all other freedoms, you have to work hard for it.

This same freedom as mining ore for car - virtual thing. You actually can go to another side of universe (as far as light cone allows).

On windows you just can download the same program and use it without any compiling. And you can freely downgrade it if you want to. No compiling, no messing with repos, makeinstall, and randomly corrupted system.
