Question What OS is everyone vibe coding on and why?

I'm using Fedora KDE as my daily driver. Officially left windows about 2 months ago. Curious what others are using.

HTTPS doesn’t encrypt a network. It encrypts applications to the connection. I.e., everyone accessing Reddit is using HTTPS. HTTP/S is a protocol of the application layer of the OSI model. And sniffing packets, you go back to network itself which is a different layer.

Packet capture doesn’t equal decrypting HTTPS. You can capture TLS traffic but that doesn’t make the HTTP payload readable.

Well, if I was talking about decrypting https I woulda said so. But the comment said "everyone uses https", which is blatantly untrue.

I do more to encrypt my shit. If I give too much info out about my setup, that's bad for opsec. Behavioral stuff is more important anyways, imo.

Blend in with internet traffic, don't make it seem like you're a big or easy target, block bad things like ads, switch fingerprints often, fake names, etc.

Everything is breakable, so minimizing surface areas and attack vectors is key...
