Having that said, security enhancements are one of the top features brought in by Nitrux 3.5.0. There are new kernel settings to tackle butter overflows, memory leaks, and other vulnerabilities. For example, it uses Z standard compression (zstd) to improve system responsiveness under heavy load.

All thanks to the KDE-plasma-powered intuitive interface, switching to Nitrux 3.5.0 from Windows 11 is a breeze. Plus, the availability of the Maui Apps and CoreCtrl tools makes it easier for new Linux users to manage hardware and software seamlessly.
