Another topic has been closed by me:
Summary:
- First-time poster heavily implies using Qubes OS as a primary device while deciding to use Kicksecure for a secondary device, even though there is a TemplateVM for it.
- References GrapheneOS Discussion Forum topic about Kicksecure and/or Whonix.
- Shares feedback about Kicksecure’s signature verification instructions from the respective website.
- Inquires about whether Kicksecure and/or Whonix are currently considered to be trusted, secure, and/or anonymous by the community.
The leading question is redundant and counter-productive for discussion due to this logic:
- There is already a relevant reference to a GrapheneOS Discussion Forum topic.
- Perception and/or reputation of projects is not a reliable indicator of trust, security, and/or anonymity properties, as evidenced by the same reference.
The topic was ultimately closed because it is about perception of external projects from the community, which is off-topic, and the rest of the topic itself serves as an example of what happens when perception of consensus is prioritized over technical properties.
