Episode 64 of The Watchman Privacy Podcast – All About Linux w/ The Linux Experiment
Gabriel Custodiet speaks with Nick of The Linux Experiment about all things Linux. They talk about the history of Linux and which distro to pick. They discuss whether LTS is a good idea, whether Linux needs an antivirus, gaming on Linux, and the best way to install programs on Linux Mint. They also discuss Nick’s high-level view of the troubling and restrictive direction that software is moving in.
