With the recent windows 10 EoL news, I was able to move my dad over to Linux mint. But he does a lot of finance stuff. Long ago, Linux had a belief that desktop Linux are not the primary target for crackers but I don’t believe that true anymore since it’s getting significantly popular lately like Europe government migration over to Linux and Libreoffice.
My question would be , given my dad is just as careful on Linux as he has been on windows, would it be fine to do finance like banking and trading (not the fastest kind )?
If not, what would be your distro of choice for that? Even browsers (I installed Firefox and Edge from Microsoft website deb file)
Ah now it makes sense why you are spamming the Ring reaper. Still needs an exploit to get it on your machine. BSD has way less hardware support then Linux.
The precise amount of hardware support of an operating system largely depends on your hardware. For example, iOS runs on iPhones while Linux does not. Does iOS have greater hardware support now?
Frankly, there is not one piece of hardware in my household that wouldn’t work with OpenBSD. I’m sure I could say the same about Linux. And you.
