With all the supply chain attacks in the Linux ecosystem, isn’t the natural solution to move to full application sandboxing?

Flatpacking is great but not all applications support it.

Is it too much of a hassle?

    I have a gaming VM running cachyOS in Qubes OS and it runs pretty good, I’d still not recommend tho as qubes will randomly freeze (at least a few times a week) and I have to hold the power button and restart might be due to me using a nvidia GPU for dom0. (I use an AMD gpu for the gaming VM and I’m not sure how GPU passthrough will work with two AMD GPUS) It does work well tho

      I mean, I only have one GPU, so if passthrough is required then that does make gaming more inaccessible.

        It is required. You can do it if you have integrated graphics you can use that for your host and passthrough your gpu but you could also get a cheap gpu for dom0 id recommend rx 580 you can get them under 100 used but again im not sure how passthrough works if both cards are the same.
