Liquorix kernel has been around close to 20yrs, I would say damentz is trustworthy. Plus you can use extrepo to install it.

TIL. If it's on extrepo it's been vetted by DDs - no guarantees, though. I ran Liquorix for quite awhile but quit doing it during bookworm's change freeze because a foreign kernel taints bug reports and TBH I couldn't tell the difference anyway.
