Every respectable OS/distro packages daemons to run as separate users. Every respectable piece of software separates privileges and uses sandboxing / hardening techniques, like chroot, pledge, yadda yadda. Linux the kernel sucks in a lot of ways, but it also does get a lot of things right. There is a notion of sub-uids and sub-gids, so that different programs run by ordinary users can each get their own, separate, unprivileged UID and GID: https://www.mankier.com/1/newuidmap > Android apps objectively sucks less than webapps. > [...] > No, android apps suck even more than webapps, and you lack of objectivity. They both suck in their own, unique, horrible ways. Comparing them is like comparing turds and vomits. If you want a suckless phone TODAY, go get a Nokia 3310, or DIY one using an Arduino kit. If you want suckless web TODAY, disable JavaScript. <3,K.
