It ain’t perfect. But it’s the best we got when it comes to a secure OS on x86.

The author is even quite explicit when they mentioned to use Fedora Silverblue for gaming.

I believe the author continues to make use of NixOS VMs withing Qubes OS.

Even if you’re rightfully concerned, they become non-issues in the author’s platform of choice: Qubes OS.

The reason (I think) they mentioned all of those explicitly Linux things, is because they’ve also stopped using OpenBSD VMs in Qubes OS.

So with the recent drama it looks like bcachefs isn’t going to stay in the kernel for too long.

That’s way too doomsaying. Even after ReiserFS’ developer was sentenced in 2006, it took till 2022 for it to be deprecated. And it has only recently been left out of of the kernel.

Excellent write-up!

Though, it’s a pity that a great ambassador of OpenBSD has stopped using it.
