@TheFuzzStone I agree in some parts. In the past Linux used to be much more secure than windows by default but now I think Windows is as secure as Linux. 1. Linux user average is more technical than windows. So is more difficult to trick a Linux user than a Windows user.2. The more popular Linux will become, the more likable to be targeted by Hackers will be.I agree, there is not any unbreakable system and Unixes are not the exception. In anyway, windows is still crap despite is more secure.

@TheFuzzStone I'm no security expert, but this thread by the developer of GrapheneOS addresses security concerns for Linux:https://teddit.net/r/GrapheneOS/comments/bddq5u/os_security_ios_vs_grapheneos_vs_stock_android/ekxifpa/and argues Windows 10 has some better security measurements in place due to better sandboxing, etc. That being said, I think most folks' "threat models" are likely safer with Linux over Windows, practically speaking. 1/2
