When I refer to Linux, I am referring to a computer with the kernel and other software that makes up a Personal Computer.
I like to think that Linux is great, and always will be, a Personal Computer. Windows, I will always remember it being the best thing for business’s as Microsoft pushes licenses and such business related features.
I switched to Linux in 2020, Ubuntu, and slowly learned my ways around, and understanding how everything works, but most people don’t have to now, it’s so simple to get started.
“Free software” doesn’t mean you don’t pay for it, but that it respects and preserves the user’s freedom. The opposite is not “cost software” but unfree software.
What is free software?
Most of the other points in this list are also questionable or inaccurate. In fact, I think the only true one is the first one: open source vs closed source.
Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.
Not really:
RHEL is paid if you need more devices than the free license provides
SEL and Ubuntu Pro don’t have any free licenses as far as I remember
you can mostly use windows without paying anything
Yeah, in fact. The Linux kernel does use proprietary software (Blobs) for it to run. Or stuff to function like Bluetooth and shit like that.
Idk, just a Twitter post I found.
