The Android's Java memory safety, exploit mitigations and smartphone hardware security aren't bullet-proof, the attack surface is big in both desktop and mobile platforms.
The best design is to reduce the attack surface, which the microkernel architecture does.

@redox@floss.social @soller@floss.social @TornaxO7@mastodon.social I absolutely agrees, I just think currently mobile are more secure than desktop for most cases, while having both big attack surface. Microkernel with capabilities would be the best I guess, (kind of similar to the Nintendo OS or Fuschia from Google) I hope one unified OS for desktop and mobile being secure and open will emerge, and Redox with Risc-V might be a great contender (also I like Rust dev)
