Isn’t it enough to just enter your password once to login, then receive a warning whenever you’re about to do something potentially dangerous?
If it’s such a big security risk, how come the most popular and widely used operating systems in the world and their users seem to be unaffected by it?
I guarantee, most new users coming to Linux from Windows/macOS are going to laugh and look at you funny if you try to justify entering your password again and again and again.
Yeah, but you gotta admit it’s possible windows does some things better.
I also think a lot of linux users get tunnel-visioned and believe that something is incorrect simply because it’s how another OS does it.
Oh yeah, there are advantages to each, despite the bickering and camps we put ourselves into. It all comes down to what abilities you’re gonna lose, and what you’re gonna gain when making the decision.
For me, I rarely game, and I do a lot of hobby electronics and programming, so Linux is a good fit. There’s so many cool open source programmer utilities out there.
For my wife, it fits not so much.
