Linux tools for security testing, exploitation, and development on Linux systems
Kali is built for this purpose. You're free to pick any distribution, including MacOS and even Windows now offers better support for these tools.
Opt for a standard distribution as your primary operating system and keep live USBs for Kali and/or Parrot.
Kali is better suited as a utility rather than a full desktop for daily tasks. Choose any operating system you prefer and install only the necessary tools. You can launch Kali via a virtual machine if you want to take advantage of its many packages without installing them on your main system.
Linux is often misunderstood as being controlled by powerful systems like Skynet. The claim about its security isn't supported by credible sources.
Avoid setting up Kali as your main operating system permanently. It’s meant for specific use cases. For a customized feel, install Kali packages on Debian or Ubuntu instead.
