Linux absolutely isn't perfect, no technology is. But in my years of experience with both, Linux on the whole is far less finicky, and far easier to fix when it breaks.

I agree 110% but it's also worth mentioning that windows isn't as finicky as we complain about. If it was, companies wouldn't by and large rely on it. People are delusional if they think Windows is only around because of some conspiracy or historical precedent. "It works" plain and simple. As you scale you're going to run into issues regardless of the OS. It's naive to think Linux is the be all that end all. As much as anyone I want to be Linux only. My home computers have been Linux for decades now. I'm a realist. There's value and challenges with every OS. I hate the industry trend of Windows over Linux but I get it

Snake if writing in python

Camel if writing in PowerShell

I tend to stick with what the language wants me to use.

Ah yes. A phone is a car. Got it.

Also, who tf is exploiting kids because they have a phone? Do you also remove all TVs from your house? What about the radio? Can't have Lady Gaga singing about "poke her face" to my kids! Lol

This is an extremely reactionary take. I hear what you are saying but I draw the line as delusional and irresponsible unless you apply that to pretty much all parents that don't completely smother their children.

We make mistakes as we grow. We lie. We get hurt. Technology is always Pandora's box. I'd argue we have better knowledge of our kids now than we ever used to and stats show the world is safer now than it has ever been.

If you live in fear you will form your decisions from a place of fear.

I will argue smartphones or any electronic is not the problem. The problem is lazy parents.

My kids all have had phones since before 10 and they're all well adjusted but to be clear I monitor their usage and I check in with my kids regularly.

I cannot hold back society or technology at the fear of my kids being left behind. What I can do is help them navigate both as they grow.

I love how quick we are to lay the blame anywhere but parents.

Imagine how much of a pussy you have to be to need to wear a gun at all times.

Takes one apartheid asshole to recognize another eh? Lol

If you're serious about monitoring your shit this is really the best answer. Zabbix is love. Zabbix is life.
