    Bring back Issue Templates to work around poor Issue Form support Some of our users (and some GitHub users in general) have reported that the new Issue Forms do not work on all browsers and platforms, sometimes leaving them with no way to open a new issue at all. As a temporary workaround (until Issue Forms are universally supported), this commit brings back the old Issue Templates, giving users a choice between form and template for each issue type.

  • Andrew David Wong (19 Jan 25)

    Replace "help, support, and questions" template with form

  • Andrew David Wong (18 Jan 25)

    Remove parenthetical text next to releases to avoid future confusion For example, 4.2 is currently the "latest stable release," but this will no longer be true in the future. Yet, this text will remain in all issue body texts created during this period, which may become confusing in the future.

  • Andrew David Wong (08 Mar 24)

    Remove "task" template The "task" template is usually chosen incorrectly. In most cases, when issue reporters use the "task" template, they should have used either the "enhancement" or "bug" template instead. Genuine tasks are rare enough that the label can be manually assigned after issue creation.

Qubes OS Reviews

More Desktop Operating Systems

  • Alpine is a security-oriented, lightweight distro based on musl libc and busybox. It compiles all user-space binaries as position-independent executables with stack-smashing protection. Install and setup may be quite complex for some new users.

  • Parrot Linux, is a full Debian-based operating system, that is geared towards security, privacy and development. It is fully-featured yet light-weight, very open. There are 3 editions: General Purpose, Security and Forensic. The Secure distribution includes its own sandbox system obtained with the combination of Firejail and AppArmor with custom security profiles. While the Forensics Edition is bundled with a comprehensive suite of security/ pen-testing tools, similar to Kali and Black Arch.

  • Tails is a live operating system (so you boot into it from a USB, instead of installing). It preserves your privacy and anonymity through having no persistent memory/ leaving no trace on the computer. Tails has Tor built-in system-wide, and uses state-of-the-art cryptographic tools to encrypt your files, emails and instant messaging. Open source, and built on top of Debian. Tails is simple to stop, configure and use.

  • Whonix is an anonymous operating system, which can run in a VM, inside your current OS. It is the best way to use Tor, and provides very strong protection for your IP address. It comes bundled with other features too: Keystroke Anonymization, Time Attack Defences, Stream Isolation, Kernel Self Protection Settings and an Advanced Firewall. Open source, well audited, and with a strong community - Whonix is based on Debian, KickSecure and Tor.
