Why do many people dislike Linux? Freedom and openness: Open source, No vendor lock-in, Many distributions Security: By default, more secure than Windows. Fewer viruses. Regular security updates.

And now briefly.

Control & Flexibility,Free, Developer Friendly, Productivity, Education & Understanding, Support & Community, Support & Community, Package Managers, Server & Cloud Friendly

Oh yeah, I forgot about our gamers! They will whine that you can’t play games on Linux. It’s very funny because for a long time there has been a program called lux-wine that allows you to open 95% of .exe programs and even more so you can choose any version of Windows without downloading anything, there is like proton and so on.

I am ready to talk to anyone about this topic, but not for the purpose of humiliation or insult.

    If I understand correctly you are responding to my comment about browser specific applications that were publicly available.

    In this case it was a public library that would have around 23,000 university students that would be in/out of the place. It was an awesome job. Most people end up using the browser over programs. We had stats over the laptops/desktops that would get checked out. It was about even. Windows vs Linux. We didn’t make a huge deal over it.
