I'm contemplating my options. I'd love to move to a secure OS like Genode but it still doesn't seem to be a complete daily driver.
I completely switched to Ubuntu a few years ago, but the loss of a functioning version of WikidPad, which was my calendar at the time forced me back, having missed a few critical doctors appointments was the straw that broke me.
It was a breaking change to the WxWindows python Library that killed it. Because the windows version of public release from 2012 was an executable, it just kept working, while the software supply chain failed for the Linux world. Many other things written in Python were killed when Python 3 hit and took them out, unless they were actively being maintained.
I've even considered the possibility of switching to VMS, having used it back in my college days, but the cost seems to be almost $100/month for a license. ==8-o
