Hehe, I see… For most I think getting a separate old laptop is the way to go, unless you want some real challenge for days or even weeks :-)

Still have not gotten around to migrating my retina IMac to Qubes, but then again now it is not being used for stuff that I should keep separate…

As for dev stuff I guess it could be both perfect and cumbersome, although I do think it is perfect for especially prototyping & testing!

Exactly, I could set up docker and start trying to run my own services and everything, when it stops working I could delete the whole VM and start fresh, I hate when a program doesn't work the first time I try to install it, I feel like I have no way to undo all the commands I copy/pasted and I'm tired of the hassle of reinstalling my OS all the time. This way I can setup a fresh VM, try to get something to work, if it works then I keep it in its little corner, it it doesn't I can just reset and go again. I'm starting to like this idea.

Of course, but as far as I understand it all Qubes is still better at compartmentalizing & building new habits…

Something similar is possible on FreeBSD, if a sort of support & coaching group could get some traction I’d be very willing to test and report on alternatives too :-)

We’ll see, whatever happens I will keep working this way since it is a great way of turning the tables, using their shitty big data as a weapon even hehe
