Casual suicide mention, Linux discourse

This! Apple already went through this when they finally caved on allowing anti-virus software in the app store

I was talking with an elderly neighbor about their options with the windows 10 end of life, and Linux came up.
Their hold-outs for a swap were lack of AV software, and old camera software.
Both of those make sense for them! They're not super tech literate, so viruses are a real concern. Treating it as a non-issue is holding the ecosystem back
