When I refer to Linux, I am referring to a computer with the kernel and other software that makes up a Personal Computer.

I like to think that Linux is great, and always will be, a Personal Computer. Windows, I will always remember it being the best thing for business’s as Microsoft pushes licenses and such business related features.

I switched to Linux in 2020, Ubuntu, and slowly learned my ways around, and understanding how everything works, but most people don’t have to now, it’s so simple to get started.

    I would argue that Linux is not more secure than Windows. Linux is way more private and gives you way more control but from a purely security perspective Linux has its own weaknesses and is constantly getting CVEs.

        I don’t think Linux is inherently insecure. I just think it does have its own security issues which is especially true of LTS. It isn’t a golden nugget and it is problematic when people treat it as such.
