  • How secure an OS is depends entirely on the configuration. A Linux install can be less secure than Windows or macOS, if configured so.

    Linux tends to be more secure OOTB because distro devs tend to be security conscious. Android is also fairly secure, since it has no root access, sandboxes applications to a degree, and has other hardening employed. However, Android is also very vast and built for various devices by many manufacturers, so it also depends on them.




  • I switched from Pop_OS! to KDE Neon because I wanted to try out the latest Plasma features. I was tired of GNOME’s bloat and needing an extension/Tweaks for basic functionality.

    Then KDE broke screen sharing, bricked my install once by breaking LUKS disk encryption, and then it booted to a black screen on updating to the latest LTS…

    So now I’m on Mint and all of my servers are on Debian because I want something that just works. Lol. No more distro hopping.
