I have yet to see a person that uses an AV on his Linix install.

Has it found anything that can run on Linux?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah, fasle positives.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I have a virus on my pc. It's called Arch Linux. I love how they brought over one of the most prominent features from windows: system degradation over time. Not every Arch issue can actually be solved without a reinstall unless you're one of the top percentile Linux gurus that understands everything there is to know.

Seriously. Even Gentoo works better after 3 years of use than an Arch Linux installation.
