Desktop Linux is insecure
Honestly I feel less secure with sandboxes Android apps that I do on desktop Linux.<p>On Linux I use my distro&#x27;s curated repository (ex to install cozy, an ebook reader, or yt-dlp), I don&#x27;t care that it has access to the rest of my system, the bonus point is that I can have access to its source code. On Android, the first app I see has &quot;In-app purchases&quot; and will probably spy on me. Yes... I agree I guess, on Android (therefore ChromeOS) app stores I definitelly want sandboxing because it&#x27;s a very adversarial relationship between the users and the apps.<p>Unfortunatelly that means you need to get into sandboxes, throw stuff in VMs and all the other things that will make performance and efficiency suck.<p>I miss the time where my computer ran only software I controlled and it wasn&#x27;t a free for all where everyone wants to run random code (Javascript from websites is a big one here). All the Specter&#x2F;Rowhammer stuff is only because you&#x27;re sometimes running untrusted code. Why do people need to be running untrusted code all the time? &#x2F;me goes back in the cave
