I hate when people keep repeating the myth that Linux is more secure than X OS without any understanding of how much Linux gets exploited.

On the other hand, FreeBSD rarely suffers from wide security issues.

Overall, I don’t think anyone should repeat the myth that Linux is secure.

And at least if they gonna recommend Linux, they better recommend a good distro with SeLinux, hardened kernel and hardened OS.

      if you mention a lemmy community in your post the post gets sent to show up in the lemmy community. Comments are automatically federated if you comment on a lemmy post.

      lemmy posts are all federated to mastodon though if the servers know about each other

      No idea. I have two accounts, one on Lemmy, one on Mastodon. Presumably somebody is mirroring this community to Mastodon, or perhaps the other way around, I’m not sure.
