airplanelasagne If Linux was literally "insecure against practically any non-trivial attack", wouldn't it apply to servers as well? You need to be bit more specific.
It is implied that this discussion is about desktop OSes specifically -- this thread's title is literally "What is your desktop OS?".
There was no need for me to specify that.
airplanelasagne Linux often gets blamed for things like lack of sandboxing, but that problem is pretty much universal on desktop anyway.
Yes, it is true that sandboxing generally is less utilised on desktops. However Linux doesn't have a de-jure app sandbox like macOS' App Sandbox (previously Seatbelt) or Android's built-in SELinux sandbox; the state of Linux sandboxing is more fractured with many inadequate solutions floating around for Linux such as Firejail, etc.
airplanelasagne ChromeOS is literally a locked-down Linux distro: unless your desktop needs are very limited
You're perfectly entitled to incorrectly believe that it is only suitable for your average tech-illiterate pal who's got a midlife crisis.
Crostini is incredibly useful and ChromeOS is easily one of the most secure desktop OSes available.
Don't want to be "locked-down"? Sure, you can shoot yourself in the foot and enable ChromeOS' developer options to gain Terminal access directly to the OS; nobody's stopping you.
airplanelasagne To me it looks like that instead of switching to Windows, it would make more sense to prefer web apps over native apps when reasonably possible, use VMs
While that does make sense, remember that there are more attack vectors than just apps, like the networking stack, Bluetooth stack, drivers, etc.
airplanelasagne And no, Microsoft publishing a blog post encouraging the use of Rust does not mean Windows is being rewritten on it.
Neither did I claim it would.
Anyhow, kindly consider continuing this discussion elsewhere to avoid derailing the main thread.
