so i am right and you are wrong. linux from SCRATCH you are a joke.

i took it as dumb worthless feedback, that’s why I tried to tell you how you can make it constructive on your next try if you actually know anything.

so how much mitigations? I’ve heard 0. do you know? 1 mitigation? 2?

If you think its wrong then show it. Show where I can get the source code and build instructions to build my own debian image.

I clearly said if i’m not sure about something. I takes time to do research if you can do better than go ahead and show us what you know. If you think something I said is wrong then please make a constructive reply and tell us all how it really is.

And QubesOS isnt based on linux kernel. It uses Xen. Linux is used in the Qubes aka VMs.

OP is wrong about firmware. linux-firmware package is not about mitigating firmware vulnerabilities. It’s just blobs for things like nvidia and other stuff. I don’t know if Linux has firmware vulnerability mitigation but if it doesn’t then QubesOS is much better because it does prevent a lot of the vulnerabilities by disabling hyperthreading.
