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.

    Gimp runs in windows. The security thing isn’t really true (X11 isn’t secure and it can’t be fixed apparently)

    In fact, as others have said, really bad comparison…

      Which is why so much work has been going into Wayland, which will replace X11.

        Yeah. And honestly, way land already works fine (even screen sharing). Waydroid is a bit of a killer app too (but needs more refinement,).
