Convenience matters a ton. My rule of thumb is that each step halves adoption. So the fraction of potentials who actually install will be ~0.5^steps.
The only time this doesn’t hold is when there is a very strong overriding driver or a mandate pushing people to overcome friction.
- kbenson 3y agoI don't disagree with that, but I think that's less of a "Linux security best practice" issue and more of a problem a community has, and that community isn't even necessarily "Linux users" as much as it's "developers" and "self described power users" of any OS. Linux probably happens to have a higher proportion of those, which might be why it's seen more as a Linux issue, but I don't really see them necessarily as intrinsically related.
