Anyone here use #Qubes? I'd be interested to know your thoughts. I have a spare laptop and feel like trying it out. I love the idea of compartmentalisation and #virtualisation for maximum #privacy and #security, just don't know yet if I'd want to use it on a daily basis, and how it compares to just spinning up multiple VMs in #VirtualBox.

@syntax I feel like Qubes is for Snowden privacy/security level needs, if you use any Linux distro with some understanding on permissions and networking that you are very solid ground in terms of privacy and security. If you also need anonymity use Tor browser or OSes that route everything trough Tor such are Whonix or Tails. Qubes needs good hardware to be usable, I might use it when I get good PC.

Very true. The only thing stopping me from trying it is hardware. And I agree, it's not necessary for most use cases.
