Right, Windows is so secure, stable and fantastic that it needs something like CrowdStrike to constantly update and patch it…and we all know what just happened there worldwide.

Linux and MacOS (which is Linux based) will never top that CF with any of their problems.

I only use Windows for Windows apps that I still need on a VMWare guest system on Linux and snapshot the image regularly to easily recover if it goes sideways. I share part of the Linux file system to the Windows guest thru VMWare for my data. Only the Windows system files are Windows-based. No way will Windows or its file systems ever be a primary resource.

MacOS is Unix-based (FreeBSD)
