I already know that it’s spyware but in the case that I need to use it for work and school on my Linux laptop, do I need to worry about configuring something so that it won’t have access to my whole system like it does on Windows? I’m on ZorinOS/Ubuntu. Thanks in advance

        Afaik Qubes runs all software in containers,
        which isolates them from each other,
        which is great for privacy.

        However, OP only asked for Chrome,
        and I assume the jump to Qubes might be too big.

        To only isolate Chrome,
        I’d recommend a Flatpak instead.

        Or even better Ungoogled-Chromium.

          Oh, I just figured that a portable version of an isolated OS would be a decent alternative. Bit you’re right maybe a bit too much
