Liar! You are not runnning KDE! On one app it says "KDE Control Center" instead of "KDE Kontrol Kenter".
My daily is Pixel 7a with GrapheneOS. Galaxy S4 is my mom's old old old phone. I have no idea how. On lineageos wiki it says that this device is not maintained anymore, but a month ago I got a system update. It's on Linegae 18.
Galaxy S4, (was) officially supported by LineageOS :)
I have 11 years old phone that still gets updates. For free. And all my computers will have updates for ever. For free.
I used geekbench 5. My CPU is AMD Ryzen 5 5500U. I tested a few prebuild kernels and custom compiled the fastest one.
prebuild linux kernel:
- singlethread: 1170
- multithread score: 4604
prebuild linux-zen kernel:
- singlethread: 1156
- multithread score: 4593
prebuild linux-xanmod kernel:
- singlethread: 1164
- multithread score: 4594
prebuild linux-hardened kernel:
- singlethread: 1156
- multithread score: 4841
custom linux-hardened kernel:
- singlethread: 1160
- multithread score: 4977
I'm running a custom kernel on my Arch laptop. It's a little faster, a little smaller and a little quite more secure. I'm also running custom kernel which enables adiantum encryption on old phone with postmarketOS.

I had 2 (actully much more) options when buying my laptop. Good laptop with windows or a liitle better laptop without windows for 200€ less.
It's sad when you figure out why most people are broke.
Thank you very much for this detailed explanation! Looks like kptr and kexec are already disabled and enabled randomized virtual memory address in the hardened kernel. I will check for ebpf. Security certs seem interesting, I will defenetly look into them.
You can do that with some search engines like Kagi.
That's definitely not true, data centers are way more efficient than home servers. But yes, they use water to be more efficient.
