Kali is a very bad choice as a desktop or daily driver. It’s intended to be used as a toolkit for security work and so it doesn’t prioritize the needs of normal desktop use in either package management, defaults or patch updates.
If you ever switched to Linux, pick a distribution you can live with and run kali in a vm like you’re doing now.
Think of it this way: you wouldn’t move into a shoot house, mechanics garage or escape room, would you?
Do I get new puzzles every week if I lived in a escape room?
Ok, it just seems funny to need to use a Kali VM when I’d already be on Linux, but no big deal I guess.
I used it as an installed desktop environment at a workbench in a non security context for a year. It was a pain in the butt in like a million ways.
Even when I used the tools kali ships with regularly I either dual booted or ran it inside a vm.
If you wanna understand why every time someone asks about using kali as a daily driver even on their own forums, a bunch of people pop up and say it’s a bad idea, give it a shot sometime.
