I didn't even know it was available on Linux. I understand your suspicions now and they seem pretty well founded. What's BSD and why is it safer than Linux? And what's Qubes?An operating system called openbsd. All the techies on on previous drug market places I was on years ago before the road was around raved about it and how secure it is. I never got into it myself.It started at Berkeley I think. Turned into OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and NetBSD. They're basically to Linux as Linux is to Windows. Sorta. ... yeah, not really, that doesn't work. Maybe in popularity, but that's all.Basically it's a Linux system, except the kernel isn't Linux -- it's a BSD. I've never tried one myself, but as Jack here says, I've seen people saying they're more secure than Linux the entire time I've used Linux. Whether there's any truth to that I can't say. It may be that it was once true, but with the greater activity around the Linux kernel you'd think that would have changed by now.
