Qubes OS is looking less crazy lately too.

• mitxela 19d ago
  QubesOS recently had an escape-the-qube-and-escalate-to-root exploit

    Didn't [insert literally any distro/operating system] have a root exploit recently?
    • mitxela 19d ago
      Omarchy did, and still does because they aren't going to fix it.

        omarchy is a clown show run by racists. there's no reason to mention it in response to qubes os
        • mitxela 18d ago
          Omarchy is the other one that made the HN front page

    Which happened for the first time since 2006 (for the currently implemented architecture with VT-d).

  If they have a systemD-less version I'd seriously consider using it.

    On Qubes, everything runs in VMs, and you can choose many OSes for your VMs, including Devuan: https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/devuan-or-other-non-systemd-templates/14734 https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/devuan-or-other-non-systemd-tem...

The AdminVM is based on Fedora and has systemd, but it has no network and you you shouldn't run anything there. Unless you think that systemd is actively malicious and specifically targets Qubes, any vulnerabilities in it are not exploitable.
