Funny, I've been running it on my laptop since Fedora 18 (current on 24 Beta). I might notice it maybe once every few months when a script or some software I'm futzing with tries to do something out of the ordinary:
[jeff@omniscience ~]$ sestatus
SELinux status: enabled
SELinuxfs mount: /sys/fs/selinux
SELinux root directory: /etc/selinux
Loaded policy name: targeted
Current mode: enforcing
Mode from config file: enforcing
Policy MLS status: enabled
Policy deny_unknown status: allowed
Max kernel policy version: 30
And yes, my nick is a throwback to Security Enhanced Linux, but when the next exploit for some common library or software comes out and I'm not affected due to SELinux, I'll smile. Can you say the same?
A few quick examples I pulled up:
