99% of the time security is about securing the product from the user. Just like Google's action we're commenting under

If you actually cared about security, you would use Qubes OS. With the latter, security of Firefox is more than sufficient for everything.

MacOS is more secure than Qubes IMO.

No single app has access to any data thanks to hardware-assisted virtualization. Last time a VM escape in the modern Qubes implementation was discovered in 2006 by the Qubes founder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Pill_(software).

I must be a shit nerd, I've never in my life thought about browser safety.

How the hell is chrome significantly more secure than firefox?
