So when it comes to kernel modifications, I’m old school…
what I actually need is understanding the kernel.
At least process, memory management, ipc, handling device, etc.. Reading "The design and implementation of the 4.4BSD operating system", but I think I need to read something before reading that book.
Apps aren't even distributed via snap or flatpak. we have the option to install software we need and compile those are snap or flatpak only.
Can I partition /home directory in a different drive and still fuction?
Only windows can't. Partitioning is recommended.
Best way to partition my / and /home directories?
You should also partition /usr, /var, /opt (if you use) and /usr/local (this hierarchy is not much used on Linux, keep it small). This gain you security and stability (do your own research if you are going to complain here).
On BSD the kernel is located on / so / should be at most 1G. On Linux the kernel is located on /boot and /boot is usually 500M, but there isn't a reason to have a huge / partition when you have partitioned /usr, /var, and /home
I simply want to seperate my / and /home without anything extra. How would I best go about that?
This is ambiguous.
The guy who use a huge single root partition (with a /home) are actually windows' user. / is C: and /home is D:
Edit: since this clown calls me “misinformation” spreader and asks for evidence, it is easy to look at one of the two long investigation articles I wrote, in which in share DivestOS XMPP room chat logs with Micay bullying DivestOS dev into banning me otherwise he will initiate a harassment campaign on social media against him.
Don't think that's related
Similar stuff was done (calling neonazi in issue tracker) against Bromite project that used what should be open sourced code, but is not.

That's personal emotion against bromite and lead to unacceptable wording. But Micay can't force others to remove their code if they do not violate it. nevertheless, Vanadium code is free in Linux communities' opinion, right?? (I'd not consider that since it is GPL)
simply: The license of vanadium is still gpl and is it free in your opinion?
Do you know how can I get started with things around the kernel?
I don’t know that you can learn “all of them”, there are new ones popping up all the time.
The core remains the same. And if I'm not stupid, everything I learned in Linux (yeah, kernel things) can be easily adapted to OpenBSD which I'm using.
My dad always urge me to learn things "around assembly" (binary math, how the kernel operate). I wanted to know how to get started with these :)
There is no freedom in his code licensing
Evidence required.
Most of them grant infinite freedom, with one requirement. (Not restrictive like *GPL.)
Others like vanadium are restrictive under GPL

You guys should not listen to TheAnonymouseJoker, this is the evidence of him spreading misinformation.
(Please note I'm not in GrapheneOS community (banned), nor putting myself in the class of privacy racers.)
These people know zilch about security
Agreed, now your mission is OpenBSD
Let's watch if your shit got cared, you can only attacks small projects with peoples who don't want to write portable code (amd64 and aarch64 only) for "security"
They don't expect users to do development on android.
(Phones should be used like telephones lol.) I'm going to buy a landline phone
harassing and witch hunting any critics
You can criticize GrapheneOS just because Micay will care about your words. But you can't do with something like OpenBSD because the developers are much knowledgeable and they never cared your words. They maintain an operating system for themselves and will not develop features to please users.
You can only criticize some small project with a developer that isn't good in communication. You are truly a petty person.
having a little social media army with sockpuppets to do this
No loser, the community is the army. (their quality isn't better than any Calyx or Lineage). The developers don't even have enough time to please user with a beautiful user interface then why they would screaming on social medias like you are doing.
But they maintained hardened_malloc and you never take a word for it.
Can you take some word for hardened_malloc or linux-hardened?
