    There are a lot more ways to sneak malware into a system. Especially if some apps aren’t being maintained anymore. Linux is definitely safer, but you shouldn’t let your guard down

      especially if you’re a developer. There are a lot of shenanigans going on with malware npm packages that prey on easy typos. I imagine it’s the same with other library installers for other languages too

        Funny you bring this up because it’s exactly what I was thinking of. A million small packages and dependencies and who knows if the repos got hijacked
