I daily drive secureblue; or, to be more precise, its bluefin-main-userns-hardened
image.
"Why?", you ask. Because security is my number one priority.
I dismiss other often mentioned hardened systems for the following reasons:
- Qubes OS; my laptop doesn't satisfy its hardware requirements. Otherwise, this would have been my daily driver.
- Kicksecure; primary reason would be how it's dependent on backports for security updates.
- Tails; while excellent for protection against forensics, its security model is far from impressive otherwise. It's not really meant as a daily driver for general use anyways.
- Spectrum OS; heavily inspired by Qubes OS and NixOS, which is a big W. Unfortunately, it's not ready yet.
More secure compared to your average distro? Or more secure compared to a specific set of distros? Unless, this is properly specified, this comment could become very unwieldy 😅.
Thanks in advance for specifying!
