Hi there,

Win10 is soon not supported. Tbh Linux have been on my radar since I started to break from the US big tech.

But how is security handled in Linux? Linux is pretty open-source, or am I not understanding it correctly. So how can I as a new user make sure to have the most secure machine as possible?

    It’s surprisingly annoying trying to configure LUKS full disk encryption. I had to look up instructions many times over on Mint.

      Wait what? I don’t use mint, but with every other distro you just check the box at install and that is it.

      Are you saying its hard to configure after you have already installed? I could imagine it might be, but why not export a list of programs you use and back up the home directory. Reinstall and check the box, restore home, and import your package list?
