I always got one virus at least once a year when I used windows. The problem users always end up downloading or torrenting some sort of windows software and that's where they usually end up getting a virus from. Since the majority of internet users use windows. It is targeted all the time.

After I changed to Linux I never got them. Since only a tiny minority of users use Linux. It's not targeted by hackers often and most simple things you can do via the terminal on Linux.

Gaming is the only issue. I have a second computer strictly for gaming that uses windows. I only use it for gaming and I have a KVM switch installation to easily switch.

I heard gaming is better on Linux these days but I've never tried it.

I have never gotten a virus on any of my computers since I use this setup. Wish I'l would of done that earlier.
