This is going to be a laughable question. What's safer to use, a consumer laptop used merely for Bitcoin and shitcoining, or a Ledger Nano S+?
Keeping a bunch of shitcoins in hardware wallet is like keeping bananas in safe deposit, you know the outcome.
I would not trust ledger with anything, including rotten bananas, but people like gambling with closed source stuff.

I'm merely asking Ledger compared to a computer/laptop with a fresh installation of Linux that's exclusively for using crypto.
You are asking to compare something that can't be compared.
Nobody knows if Linux was installed correctly, and how are you using it in real life.
Sure, ledger is easier to use, if that is what you want, but new Trezor or Keystone devices are ten times better as multi-coin signing devices.
Even old offline smartphone as secondary signing device is probably better than using just a laptop.
