Why Linux Is Better Than Windows
Linux is a relatively little-used operating system, yet it has many surprises in store for you. I even think it’s better than Windows. Indeed, recently, I switched from Windows to Linux, and I wouldn’t go back to Windows for the world.
I’ll tell you why. But be warned, Linux does have a few disadvantages, which I’ll mention below.
What is Linux
Of course, you all know what Windows is. Linux, on the other hand, is a little less well-known. And those who do know it certainly have a strange image of it, as if Linux were only for geeks or hackers. But this is not the case.
Linux is a free and open-source operating system kernel that serves as the foundation for various operating systems, known as Linux distributions. It was initially created by Linus Torvalds in 1991 and has since grown into one of the most prominent and widely used open-source projects.
The Linux kernel itself is responsible for managing system resources, such as the processor, memory, and input/output devices, and providing a secure and stable environment for applications to run on top of it. It supports a wide range of hardware architectures, making it versatile and adaptable to various devices, including servers, desktop computers, smartphones, embedded systems, and more.
