First installed a linux box, 1996 (Debian) at a startup I was working at with help from Juzzie our star Sys-Admin who was stolen from Hutchison.
At work it was the BSD’s that did the secure hosting and payments. Linux was a play toy, Windows was where the money was made.
Funny thing is, #linux is useful because it’s open and permissive. Meaning you can get a lot of hardware, peripherals and software to work quickly. So I’ve used linux for work and play. Dabbled in a bit of OBSD which is great but requires more work to setup and run *new things*.
I stopped using Windows in 2000 and dabbled in MacOS from 2014 onwards. Windows is now a joke, MacOS closed and expensive, Linux is insecure leaving the BSDs.
I have no real allegiance to any OS as I’ve used so many different systems. It’s going to be a rough ride for #OpenSource #OperatingSystems connected Internet while the #AI hoards seek to break and plunder.
