Mukhang madami na din ang gumagamit ng lunix sa Pinas.
Pero, hindi pa din ganun ka popular ito.
Sa mga linux Distro Users dito, ginawa ko tong thread na 'to
para i-share nating mga linux users kung bakit tayo gumagamit ng mga linux distros.
Ano ba ang advantage nito?
Please share your linux experience.......

Major Linux Distributions
Dont konw which Linux distribution to choose? This Overview from Distrowatch.com may
help you decide what to choose.
Top Ten Linux Distributions
Im using LinuxMint 17 KDE edition, LinuxMint LMDE edition, Kali linux at Quirky Linux on my Lenovo Ideapad s10-3s
multi-booted with GRUB......
Im also testing Android-x86, Slacko and LFS releases.
If you want to know more about different linux distributions,
get in to the Linux World and dive at this site: distrowatch
There are different flavors of linux for different tasks and different niches.
For me, Ive been using LinuxMint 17 as my day-to-day Operating System.
Ive used it when I was still a volunteer admin for a certain skills develeopment school recognized by TESDA.
Which means to say that, Linux MInt was able to cater our daily needs, from simple paper works to creating tarpaulins.
On my own, I think, one of the major advantages of Linux over Windows are:
1. MORE SECURED COMPARED TO WINDOWS AND MAC.
Linux is less affected with viruses and malwares. In fact, its very rare to have Linux desktops to have
viruses screwing the system. On my 3 years experience with linux, I never had problems pertaining to
infections of malicious codes. And Im usually using my Linux to download windows applications, specially, cracked softwares then scan it with ClamAV before transfering it to my windows partition.
This thread had received comments majorly concerning about this topic.
For further references on how secure linux is, I decided to provide some links:

How Linux hanlde security matters:
The Security Enhanced Linux that is implemented on many, especially major Linux Distributions
What is AppArmor?
Some pointers on why Linux is much more secure than any Non-Free Operating Systems
Is Linux really Virus-Free?
Is Linux Operating System Immune to Malware
History of Viruses on Linux. (Link courtesy of muthym)
2. LOW MAINTENANCE.
Linux filesystems like ext4, xfs, reiserfs, etc. doesnt need to be DEFRAGMENTED.
You dont need to run any ANTIVIRUS SCAN.
You dont need to do any REGISTRY CLEANING.
3. GOOD SOFTWARE UPDATE MANAGEMENT.
On Windows, running windows update only updates the system. You have to manually update your
downloaded applications. On linux, running system update will also update all of your favorite applications
to its newest and safest version available.
4. FLEXIBLE AND HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE
With Linux, you are not limited. You may change the layout of your
desktop even to the point of making it look like Mac.
If you have an old computer that is no longer supported by the latest
version of Windows available, you may use different Linux distro
specially created for this like Sparky Linux.
Or if for some reasons, you need to have a portable Operating System that
will fit on your tiny 4GB flash drive, then you may use Puppy Linux.
If you need to learn how to hack for offensive security purposes, then you may
use Kali.
Theres a lot of different linux distributions out there that will serve any
of your specific needs.
5. CAN RUN WINDOWS APPLICATIONS
Yes! If you still need your windows applications running on linux, you may do so.
Just install Wine and you can run any windows applications
on Linux.
6. EASY TO FIND APPLICATIONS
On linux, you dont have to search google for Linux Programs or games. Linux has Software managers
where you can use to look for applications to install.
7. ITS FREE!
Yes! You dont have to pay for anything. Its all for free. Like using the google search engine.
If your wondering how the hell this people could spend their time programming just for free,
its because, actually, their earning from it. Just imagine how google and android became big things
offering free services.
Linux has a ton of applications as counterparts for non-free windows applications.
Most of us spend our time searching for crack softwares leading us to unsecure grounds and downloading malwares
and tons of viruses. Why not use Linux instead? If you need Adobe PhotoShop but cant buy it, why go for malicious cracks
if you may use Gimp. Why search for virus-infested cracks of MS OFFICE if you may use Open Office or Libre Office.
Im urging many people to use Linux thats why i made this thread.
If your a linux user here on Mobilarian, why not share your ideas and urge others?
Mobilarian muthym shares his Linux Expereince on his blog titled "No Turning Back!"
Mobilarian iamasuperuser shares his reason on why he turned to Linux on his blog titled "I’m shifting to LINUX"
