Let me pile on top of that and note that if Linus had listened to his elders and used a Microkernel instead of the monolith, the kernel would be small enough that this kind of thing wouldn't be happening.

You are free to use Minix or Hurd, not sure if a modern browser will even run, but if you want a microkernel so badly...
So if only Linus would have listened we would have Linux as microkernel equally feature rich and widespread? Stupid Linus /s
