I was using Mac OS High Sierra (I was not using Linux). The first distro I used is Debian 8. At the moment I use several operating systems, especially in the mobile sector (Android and iOS). More than anything else than Debian or Linux I appreciate the modular system (which is an advantage and a defect). While other operating systems allow users to quickly install all software components, Debian or Linux are not that straightforward. An example is the installation of the proprietary Nvidia driver in older Intel-based MacBook Pros. It was necessary to isolate the integrated graphics card of the processor through grub and then enable the proprietary driver through x11. Nothing complicated, but before I got used to this new world I lost a few days (looking for unofficial documentation and tutorials). This allows you to get to know the operating system better and it forces the user to deepen the study of the operating system components (through manuals and courses). Then, if the topic is liked, the user will be encouraged to inquire by reading offensive security and social engineering documentation to try to defend himself in some way. And now I am here, one of the many Debian users. Nothing more, nothing less. About Linux software I also appreciate that it is free and I not having to buy the licenses of the programs that then actually use free software libraries.
