Am 29. Nov, 2023 schwätzte Steve B via PLUG-discuss so:

moin moin Steve,

I use debian lxc containers on a debian desktop for my containerized
Firefox profiles.

Mostly I just use many Firefox profiles ( usually have several Firefox
instances running at a time ) on my desktop and make heave use of Firefox
containers.

I run unprivileged lxc containers as another user, then use ssh -Y to
bring them up on my desktop. I'm probably causing a lot of overhead this
way :).

At Stammtisch a couple weeks ago Victor talked to me about Qubes. I've
looked at Qubes a few times, but never played with it. He said it does a
great job of isolating processes in VMs, even the desktop is a VMs. He got
me interested in checking the project out again.

I've been using Apparmor and Firejail to secure Firefox for the past few
years. However, for sometime now I'm finding that Firefox profiles for one
or the other do not appear to be maintained. Consequently I'm looking to
move my use of Firefox to a VM.

My dilemma is what OS to use for the VM. Alpine or Damn Small were my first
considerations. Small footprint, just the essentials and then add Firefox.

Is anyone here doing something similar? Looking for suggestions as to which
OS to use.

Steve
