2 years ago, I read up on QubesOS while considering what Linux distro to try out (zero experience with Linux prior to this). I realized I was not technical enough at the time to build myself due to hardware requirements, but I knew I could learn and committed to being reasonable and going slow. I ordered a custom built box with QubesOS installed. This guaranteed I could avoid the hardware compatibility issue and helped me feel more confident, so I tore it all down and built it back up and slowly learned. It was a rollercoaster some days but overall, because I had no expectations of it being my daily driver it was great. At the end of 2022 I was confident enough to leave the training wheels and go full sovereign I found it rewarding and think Qubes OS is excellent.
