After spending months testing privacy-oriented Linux distributions, I stumbled upon Securonis Linux, and finally, my search has ended. I've tried many privacy-focused systems—some were outdated and cumbersome, others overly complex without offering genuine security enhancements. Securonis, however, stands apart distinctly.

What impressed me most about Securonis is its carefully crafted ecosystem of custom tools. It doesn't overwhelm you with unnecessary features, nor does it compromise usability in pursuit of security. Instead, it delivers precisely what's needed: effective encryption, built-in Tor integration, and an intuitive yet minimalist interface.

While the project is still young, the level of polish is remarkable for a distro maintained by a single developer. There are minor quirks here and there, but these are easily forgivable considering the pace of improvements and the developer’s clear enthusiasm and transparency.

I genuinely believe that Securonis fills an important niche. It provides privacy enthusiasts like myself with a clean, reliable, and trustworthy Linux environment, something that's increasingly rare nowadays. This distribution deserves recognition and support, and I eagerly look forward to its continued development.

After the Septor project was discontinued, I began searching for a reliable and privacy-focused Linux distribution. I tried Kodachi but unfortunately it was so outdated that it couldnt even receive system updates anymore. On top of that I had serious concerns about its transparency and overall trustworthiness.

Then I came across Securonis Linux, and I must say this was the distribution I had been searching for all these years. The fact that it is completely open source immediately gained my trust. Securonis doesn’t just promise privacy it reflects it in every detail I was especially impressed by its encryption tools.

Securonis truly made me feel that it's different from other systems. Its custom-built tools, seamless Tor integration, and purposeful design all work exactly as intended. It doesn't overwhelm the user with unnecessary complexity, yet offers advanced features for those who want to dig deeper.

I sincerely hope this project grows and receives the attention it truly deserves. Projects like this are rare and fill a huge gap for users who value privacy and transparency

Truly a unique and well-developed system. This is exactly what I was looking for — I just want basic privacy, my friend. Why should I carry a USB stick with me all the time, or run virtual machines within virtual machines? And why should I use a bloated, outdated system that forces VPN, Tor, DNSCrypt, and other unnecessary tools?

Securonis puts an end to all this privacy chaos. The interface is very simple and beautiful. Unlike other systems, it’s not just a respin — it has its own complete ecosystem. Dozens of custom-designed useful apps and scripts.

There are a few minor bugs, but I attribute that to it being developed by a single developer and still being in its early stages. The developer seems very enthusiastic. Since I first checked out the project, it has come a long way. I'm sure it will grow even more.
