Apart from the fact Linux has total customisability, a working search function, doesn't spy on its users, has programs to run Windows apps, isn't anti-consumer, and of course is free.
- sfifs 6y agoMaybe you missed the part where I said I was Linux exclusive for a decade plus. For me the trade-offs aren't worth it anymore - I'm mainly interested in a Linux programming environment. I'm sure the trade-offs are different for others.
