linux dont have virus because no one uses linux and developers dont bother making virus for linux

prove me wrong kek

You're right. I don't mind though. I'm super comfy with my Debian install and I'm way more efficient than I was on Windows. Plus I'm not being spied on and if something works, it works better than on Windows.

Developers aren't making viruses, script kiddies do, and they have no idea how to use a UNIX system unlike real developers.

>>60467153
>Windows Developers

Spend time developing duct-taped solutions and bullshit bloat/spy/malware that is aimed to collect data and milk users

>UNIX developers

Develop all kinds of cool shit for free and share the source code, contribute to other projects and help each other out.

Linux has malware and vulnerabilities that can be exploited just like Windows

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Pretty much. A lot more end users use Windows so it's more profitable to fuck with Windows than Linux.

that may be the case on the desktop but not with servers
>developers dont bother making virus for linux
whilst not 100% secure, linux is infinitely more secure compared to windows

>>60467211
second paragraph: There has not yet been a single widespread Linux virus or malware infection of the type that is common on Microsoft Windows; this is attributable generally to the malware's lack of root access and fast updates to most Linux vulnerabilities.

>>60467235
...yet windows machines get owned every single day because it's child's play to exploit

You are lucky enough to get coreboot working.
