Why is Linux a better solution?

Why is Linux a better solution?

What is Linux? What makes it better? What are its advantages and disadvantages? Should you switch to Linux? How to install it? You can find the answer to these and many other questions on one website that has been translated into as many as 40 languages, plus Serbian.

The authors of that text wanted to show all Windows users why Linux is better, and why to switch to an open-source system and listed the differences between Linux and Windows using the simplest examples so that everyone could understand.

The site is extremely simple and on the home page, you can see 27 advantages of Linux and 4 advantages of Windows. Below that, there are instructions on how to install Linux if you decide to use this OS.

By clicking on one of these advantages, a page with a detailed explanation of that advantage and a short comparison with Windows opens. The texts are not long, and once you start reading you won't be able to stop :)

I would single out several advantages:

  • No virus,
  • It's free,
  • Forget about drivers,
  • The system is stable and can work for years without resetting,
  • Your old computer will run faster and more stable,
  • The possibility of working with multiple work surfaces...

and you can see the whole list on the website whylinuxisbetter.net.
