    That will be the final kick in the pants I need to switch to QubesOS. How much fucking money do they actually need?

    If they do this. I’m going to use WINE on QubesOS…but then again. If the only penalty for not paying is ads, there’s going to be ways of blocking those.

      If I may ask, why QubesOS in particular?

      Is it for the extra security? Then why aren’t you using it now?

      Is it for the virtualization? Then why not any other Linux OS ?

        Compartmentalization for keeping all my shit separated and also to keep things more secure.
