Never too late to switch to Linux :D. Manor Lords runs really well. Malware does not.

yeah but most games don't work on Linux. But the reason Linux is safe is beccaus its small. If everybody jumps to linux so are the scammers... i guess?

Thanks to Steams Proton, Wine and DXVK the most Games today run quite well on Linux. Some even with way more frames (Apex for example).

But yes, the biggest security advantage of Linux is its small user group.

Imagine having security concerns, then proceeding to use Windows.

Mythology, although I understand why people in the desktop space think so. It is a small user group on the desktop, but it is also 90% of web servers and close to 100% of military vehicles, In the professional space Linux is used anywhere security and stability are more important than the user. Anything you can think of that has a high probability of being targeted runs Linux. It's not because of the 'small user group' - in a high security environment, Windows is the small user group.

The oversimplified reasons are that you have to be explicit about permissions in ways that Windows just kind of assumes, notably execution of code; and depending on your implementation, each application can run in its own containerised process tree separate from the OS, which I'm sure Windows will catch up on in 10 years and claim for itself.

Norton is always rubbish. Get kaspersky or bitdefender.

I saw 2024 test cases were Bitdefender took more resources than norton. Norton anti-virus took out threats when bitdefender did not also the otherway around....once infected all anti-virus scaners are pretty much useless...
and Kaspersky, no thx.

NGL, get rid of Norton unless you visit some seriously shady sites.

I was a customer for 4 years. Most people who are PC enthusiasts will tell you the same. Its a waste of money unless you visit some really shady sites and might need extra protection.

Can I please address you all, from the standpoint of someone who works in security, and has done for many years, if you are serious about malware defence and watch a lot of porn then you absolute need something alone the lines or Norton, Mac or BitD, Norton's scan base is updated about 300 times per day, as are most of the large players AI scanning bases, just because you play Fortnite and installed your own watercooler, and are somewhat active on reddit, you're not a big guy, and should not be advising others on their need for antimalware framework, if you have any passwords, banking information or other important data such as logins for tax submission sites or other .gov sites, you absolutely need these kinds of structures on your pc, someone said ''you're 20 years behind'', 20 years behind what? the scale of violent offensive movements online now are x1000 more in scale and aggression than they were this time last year, hate to fear monger but tiktok knows how many times a day you blink, believe or not, I've heard people mention Kaspersky in the past, spying on westerners for Russia, who cares all your data is out there, every government on earth has at least 3 pages of information on you directly, that ships sailed, so make sure you have good solid software on your pc to keep your assets you actually have control over in your life, safe, also the last comment regarding really shady sites, companies pay for advertising in topic clusters, you can be redirected to some very questionable sites through no fault of your own.
