Question. What makes Linux “famously insecure”? Beyond installing anything through random commands you find in the wild, I don’t see how Linux is more insecure than Windows. Linux code is open source and on the more popular distros vulnerabilities are found and fixed.
Also, the idea that Windows can even be considered secure at this point knowing it now includes spyware by default is just hilarious. I know privacy isn’t the same as security but as things stand all it takes is for Microsoft to suffer a breach for extremely sensitive data from billions of people to be exposed.
For me, this risk is way bigger than any risks I might run by daily driving Linux. Imo.
