No. I can't remember when Linux used to be a conservative swamp driven by pure nostalgia.

Is Qubes any more efficient in resource usage than a typical VM? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] kenkenken@fedia.io 9 points 1 month ago

It is not like 'very limited'. But generally they are focused around modern Intel CPU, and can have issues on new AMD CPU. And it won't work on very old CPUs without proper virtualization features.

https://www.qubes-os.org/hcl/ can hint on what Qubes will work better.

Also see the system requirements: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/system-requirements/

Is Qubes any more efficient in resource usage than a typical VM? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] kenkenken@fedia.io 6 points 1 month ago

Probably, yes. Qubes AppVMs don't run the whole DE inside it. Also, Qubes uses automatic memory balancing for VMs, so users doesn't need to care about it much.

Any recommendations against Sinkclose on older CPUs? (fedia.io)
 

As AMD has no intentions to release a patch for the Ryzen 3000 series and bellow, what users can do to protect themselves?

I can assume few things:

  1. Do not run any untrusted software and closed source software in general.

  2. Do not run untrusted OSes and distros. Also disable ability to boot from external devices.

  3. Sandboxing (e.g. flatpaks) won't give you any protection, as it does not protect against kernel exploits.

  4. VMs can give defense if you need to run untrusted apps. Probably it is good to run networking apps in a VM also.

What else? What about web browsers? What you are going to do with affected devices if you have them?
