Linux is very secure, which is my priority, but it is a very limited operating system: WhatsApp? No. Roblox? No.
Why would you even want those things if security is a priority?

Debian or Flatpak, so basically all distros.

Signal? No.
I’m running Signal right now on Linux Mint.

Fuck whatsapp, Signal is available.
What’s Roblox?

Signal works on Linux?
flathub.org/en/apps/org.signal.Signal
WhatsApp has a non official client

I don’t use Roblox but it seems to have a working workaround for Linux
I would argue that Linux is a lot more customizable than windows, and can be a lot faster and more stable than either windows or MacOS.
I personally don’t like Ubuntu and am pretty content on Fedora after a decade of distro hopping

On the chance that you’re engaging honestly, rather than just trolling…
WhatsApp, Roblox and Signal all run fine in Linux.
This is the ProtonDB page for Roblox. www.protondb.com/app/2181790. ProtonDB is a database that assesses how well windows games run under linux, and in this case, Roblox is Gold rated.
There are numerous WhatsApp apps and wrappers that run under linux, and Signal has an official Linux version found here signal.org/download/linux/

But if you’re running WhatsApp or Roblox on Linux or on Windows, you have already flushed security & privacy down the shitter. Roblox is a particularly hideous grifting platform.
OP outed themselves as a troll when they said Widows was more customizable. No way they’re arguing in good faith.

Signal had a Linux app for years.
WhatsApp might not have a Linux app, but I don’t use it on my phone, either. Fuck Meta.

I shouldn’t feed the trolls but obligatory:

security is my priority
WhatsApp and Roblox
come on, a low-effort troll still needs some effort.

What’s your point? If Windows is working for you, keep using it.
AbidanYre@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Just a troll. Right there at the end…
I don’t have a PC

This post feels like a bot wrote it as pro Microsoft spam.

Idk it seems a weird trolling attempt. Or maybe mental illness.
FauxLiving@lemmy.world 4 months ago
It does read a bit like someone running a low parameter llm on their GPU that’s been fine tuned on social media chatter.

Great for me but I don’t use any of those. Like two of those I attribute to smartphone users. I can’t think of anything I run on windows that I can’t on linux.
