I'm serious enough about security that I don't trust a very small dev teams skill set developing a browser for the Internet we have today.

And I don't care if my browser is compromised, since the attacker would only get access to an empty VM on Qubes OS.

    I'm not switching my os to some obscure one for security and it doesn't make sense for me to isolate my browser from my system/files.

    And yes my mail account is more critical than my local files.

      Xen is not an obscure system. Hardware isolation was broken last time in 2006 by the Qubes founder ("Blue pill software").

      I open my email in a dedicated VM, so only my email provider could attempt to compromise me. Attachments are automatically opened in another, disposable VM.
