QubesOS is amazing! I've been working on QubesOS for several years. When it was just starting out, it was a fairly simple solution, but now it's a big software, and it has just as many problems as any Linux distribution. Complexity is the only parameter by which you can determine the amount of malware. For 0 bytes of useful code, there will be 0 backdoors. I also developed ACPU OS for this reason 12 years ago, but later realized that no one would pay for simplicity.
