I don't know, really. I have a ton of "personal machines" when it gets right down to it, but I'll think client wise. I distro hop chronically on most of my machines. Sometimes multiple OS reinstalls across machines per week. Some installs have lasted a few months but it's rare. I try to stick to official repos when I do reinstall, so I'm outsourcing that trust to the distro maintainers. If it's on the disk, it's gone except for a few important files I keep in a self-hosted Nextcloud sync folder. I use LUKS encryption to ensure leaving the laptop on the bus is a non-event. If it was ever in somebody's possession for very long (border, police, lost and found) I'd just put it in the garage and never touch it again. Firmware malware is pretty uncommon, still, so I'm just hoping for the best there.
