    I would love to use Linux on my work PC but our IT is too lazy to figure out how to put their corporate spyware on it.

      As someone that both runs Linux at home as a daily driver and runs an infrastructure and ops team for a company.

      The threats against the two are totally different and modern businesses need things like detection and response capabilities. Most of which don’t have Linux desktop counterparts.

        I thought all modern EDR tools had a Linux client?

          They do but they are built for server use.

      I used Linux for my work PC for a year and had endless problems. If it was my personal pc that would be fine but I was wasting time that I should have been using to complete my work, instead spending that time debugging constantly changing problems

        Mine has been super smooth as a workstation for 7 years. But I think that is the fragmentation issue with Linux. I chose a distro based off of a corporate one and random dude uses Hannah Montana Linux expecting same results.

          True, the solutions people would give to my problems almost always involved installing a new disro, and usually it was a different distro in each answer

        Funny, that’s my daily experience using corporate windows boxes.

          I think you’re born either able to use Linux trouble free or able to use Windows trouble free

            Or you’re me, and can use neither trouble-free. I’m basically this man.

          In my spare time nobody is going to ask me to justify why I delayed a meeting by 10 minutes because my screenshare wasn’t working

          Ssshh. Let’s not give away that little hint - there may be bosses present.

          I learned Linux on the boss’ dime and it created tons of career opportunities.
