Good for you. And for now, Linux is open source and so is more secure and less intrusive. I read that Window's OSs are becoming more and more intrusive. And I believe that even the hardware (motherboard and processor) are becoming a privacy concern. Then there are the apps/software.

An old hardware platform is safer and probably does everything that an average person might want.

Lastly newer systems are adopting the Apple of planned obsolescence. How many of your newer computers are not capable of running Windows 11? The solution — buy a new computer (or install Linux).

How does open source make it more secure? I would think it would make it less secure.
