I commend Dahlia for introducing these technologies to the Linux community and attempting to create a streamlined migration path from the libre OS of today to the one of tomorrow.

Apple & IBM abandoned Fuchsia as “too ambitious”. Only Google has the resources to complete this project – and it’s open source, so what’s not to like? Fuchsia is more secure due to its use of the Zircon microkernel which vastly reduces the impact of typical exploits that affect monolithic kernels like you are using today.

Fuchsia’s basic components are exposed to apps as object-capabilities so Fuchsia apps have no ambient authority, which further increases security. Zircon’s design also allows for hot-swapping critical system components – apps and system services run in isolated sandboxes.
