I was sent a @novacustom laptop preinstalled with Qubes, Coreboot, and tons of other nifty privacy & security perks. Here's my full review where I break down the laptop, what I love, and what I don't love! Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlEi0O8pPWo

Monokulturen können Cyberangriffe erleichtern – Open-Source-Software (FLOSS) schafft Vielfalt und bietet viele Vorteile: u.a. Offenheit, Anpassbarkeit und Interoperabilität.

Fazit: Open Source stärkt die Sicherheit – doch Sicherheit bleibt ein Prozess.

New blogpost: "Installing postmarketOS with full disk encryption on a OnePlus 6"

The start of my adventure with @postmarketOS, bringing Linux-based life back to an old phone.
