Sure, I agree with that - although you might be surprised how many of them don’t. But that’s kind of the point, web servers are massive targets for virus development, and yet even grandma’s Linux Mint still doesn’t get viruses that often.

That the lack of Linux viruses is mostly/specifically due to lower user base. It’s probably a factor but I don’t think it’s the primary reason.

People say this but I don’t think it’s true. The vast majority of internet servers run on Linux and they are much higher-value targets than your laptop. It is more secure than windows, not just because of the smaller user base. However you’re right of course that you can still get viruses.

What about three weeks of extra annual leave, public holidays, real healthcare with no bullshit co-pays (and unlimited sick days, they don’t count towards “pto”), a maximum 35 hour work week… Because that’s more like what it would look like for a higher value job like that. Depends on the country and the job, of course. But in my case in the UK right now, and in my last job in Germany, my total “pto” in US terms has been roughly two months. (Which is a lot even here, but it’s not by any means unheard of, and easy to get if it’s a priority to you). Doing a job with an average salary of about 100k in the US, and I get paid a little over 50k £ for it, which is about 1.5 times the median salary here, so even after the recent inflation it affords a pretty comfortable lifestyle, it’s enough money to pay the mortgage and take holidays to the continent in my ample time off.

Sorry, this turned into a bit of a rant, but tldr: it’s not just “an extra week”
