linux isnt immune to viruses even though its not as bad as windows
what should i do to be safe if i have a safe browser, vm, but pirate and download risky things? i know its a vm but i still dont want to have to delete everything in the vm if something happens. also the malware doesnt go to the router and spread rigt???
You can just use a VM and an antivirus on Windows. Linux isn’t really necessary for your scenario
Yeah but we don’t want to use Microslop!
OP is the kind of user who used Tails on his own computer to log into his Gmail account. He has grammar issues and thinks Linux is this hacker OS that makes you anonymous and impossible to hack
Let’s be real, do you think this is the best thing for OP who is presumably a child?
Well you can just some windows is always unsafe.
I’d argue it’s literally the worst virus, tbh. It’s terrible at literally EVERYTHING, annnnd (for activated versions that didn’t come with your hardware) costs money.
And after all that, you still gotta deal with the Windows virus itself.
That is exactly the point. You want to create a psychological boundary, you treat it as a disposable system so you never put any valuable data on it in the first place
That’s not a good enough reason to use it, even disposably, even as a throwaway, ever. Unless your producing music or video and can’t adapt to the alternatives, or something like that, there’s no reason to use Windows at all.
No matter how many different layers of virtualization you use, then just different fistros. Never Windows.
