True and False.
- Linux IS free.
- Windows updates can be suspended and/or switched off. The fact that Windows complains if you don’t update is actually a good thing, since regular updates do not only protect YOU, but also everyone else, especially those who communicate with you via email, im, etc.
- You DO need an antivirus app on Linux, since there are quite a variety of Linux-based malware and ransomware in the wild. Mac users often live under the same illusion.
- Windows is even more customizable than Linux, including the bootloader, GUI, desktop, icons and decorations.
- NTFS is as fast as Ext4, with the same capacity and limitations.
Don’t get me wrong I love Linux. But facts are facts.
