It would depend on the scenario. Of course, Linux is easier to work with but OTOH there are requirements which only seL4 can satisfy.
There's a lot required on top of seL4 for it to be actually useful. Fortunately, there has been a lot of Open Source work there as well. This is where seL4 is in a much better position than just a few years ago.
For static scenarios, there's LionsOS[0], quite usable already.
For dynamic scenarios, there's the Provably Secure, General-Purpose Operating System[1], which is still early stages.
Both can be found in the Projects page[2] at trustworthy systems, which is linked in the seL4 website.

- TheAmazingRace 2y agoThank you kindly for providing these links. I do hope that microkernels take off in a big way for general purpose computing someday.
