Linux is a better OS than Windoze. Far better. No ransomware for Linux. :roll: :roll:

Linux is also too tiny a market for hackers?

Android is branded version of Linux. There is ultimately no difference for a user between Windows and Linux. Linux is just a steeper learning curve. Nothing more. You can use a GUI which is identical to Windows if you desire.
