Spood got a reaction from
MAYERMAKES in Who thinks Linux is better??
- you can customize your install the way you want. From distros to desktop environment, and then customize those environments...
- sort of safer than windows for the same reasons Macs are: not as popular so not as many viruses actively developed for it.
- large community to help (or tell you to RTFM)
- a lot more control on your system and privacy
- much lighter than windows which is perfect for old computers that you still want to keep.
