I first used Linux about 5 years ago (Ubuntu). Since then, I have tried quite a few distros:

Kali Linux (Use as a secondary)

Linux Mint (Used for a while)

Arch Linux (Could not install)

Tails (Use this often)

Qubes OS (Tried it twice, not ready yet)

Fedora (Current main)

For me, it has been incredibly difficult to find a properly privacy oriented Linux distro that also has ease of use. I really enjoy the GNOME desktop environment, and I am most familiar with Debian. My issue with Fedora is the lack of proper sandboxing, and it seems as though Qubes is the only one that really takes care in sandboxing apps.

Apologies if this is the wrong community for this question, I would be happy to move this post somewhere else. I’ve been anonymously viewing this community after the Rexodus, but this is my first time actually creating a post. Thank you!

    If you would experimentate can try Alpine linux is a security-oriented, lightweight Linux distribution based on musl libc and busybox.

    At least that says about itself.

    However, I have never installed it

      I believe I may have live booted it once (when I needed to perform an action that live booting with Ubuntu couldn’t do), and I really enjoyed the look and feel of it for the short time I used it.

      Or it was a different one, but let’s just assume it was Alpine ;)
