Linux vulnerabilities and immutable distros

I switched from Bazzite to Fedora because my graphics card (AMD bought specifically so I could smoothly switch to Linux) died while running Bazzite. The card was replaced under warranty and it was almost definitely nothing to do with the OS but I’m the anxious type so it took me many months to return to Linux at all and I was too nervous to go back to Bazzite.

However with the range of attacks on Linux recently, I’m wondering whether an Atomic distro like Bazzite would offers extra security protection that seems increasingly important.

Interested in others’ take on this.

Question: If I access Filen through rclone without setting rclone’s encrypt option, is the access still E2EE?
Reason for asking: The Filen desktop drive mount app (Linux) is so slow for me as to be almost unusable. I had put it down to my long distance from your servers and the E2EE overhead. But today I mounted the drive with rclone and it was instant! Now I’m worried that the connection might not be E2EE unless I set that up in rclone.
