@nprofile1q... I feel like you may want to take a look at Gentoo. I'm not going to say it's immune to any of this, but even the things that might get in there at least you can better bypass since it gives so much control to the user.
(I feel like I remember seeing some comment somewhere that they aren't into vibe coding and I can say that they are currently using the 6.18 LTS kernel as the main kernel, so it's not going to include the stuff going into the bleeding edge in the normal kernel at least.)
