- Qubes is overkill for my needs.
- Kodachi is shady as fuck and could have a backdoor.
- Kali has too much of an attack surface. It's bundled with thousands of software packages that can be leveraged in attacks.
- Whonix is certainly useful, but you need a beefy machine to run two VMs side-by-side. Also it may leave a forensic footprint if your Linux install dumps contents from RAM to disk (swap).
- Tails again is useful, but I found it's updated very frequently. A whole new flashed thumbdrive just to update Tor is insane. But I still use it for like 50% of my computing.
