Comment on Do any hardened Linux distributions exist?
Syrup@lemmy.world 1 year agoThe kicksecure documentation is well written. Go here for distro-morphing of Debian 12, step by step things to do are pretty explicit and you can even copy the command lines if you think you’ll make a mistake…

Does Kicksecure implement proprietary software into Debian? Personally me, I run OpenRC and the linux-libre kernel on my Debian 12 system on a Libreboot laptop with fully free software.

Awesome!
You have the holy of Free Software —
Richard Stallman approves!
I really like Linux libre kernel but it has some downsides because it doesn’t have patchs to fix some critical vulnerabilities. Libreboot is just a distant dream unfortunately few devices are compatible with it.

I don’t think so, mostly it’s hardening, and few security related software, all FOSS

Do you know if I can morph my GNOME Debian version to Kicksecure? I read their documentation and they recommend XFCE.

According to their Wiki, other Distros (including DE) are not supported/documented and if you do it’s at your own risk. Personally, I wouldn’t dare trying that.
