Yup. While not perfect, it’s my preferred distro now. Well, has been for a few years now.

It can also be used to manually harden fedora 39, which I think is great as well!

This is good for precisely the single user case - potentially malicious services on your system can’t view things they otherwise would be able to, or access resources they don’t need. Even if it’s under the same user.
