Blasphemy! And also I'm poor, although I guess if I really wanted to run spyware as my kernel I could pirate it.

But yeah, I'm getting the sense those are the two games in town, Linux-wise.

The kernel is fine, it's been in the hands of pretty cool people since at least NT. As for the stuff running on it, well...... ๐Ÿ˜—๐ŸŽถ

Really? Is it open source, or are we just going by reputation of the developers?

I actually don't know much about the kernel they use, I was really just trying to emphasise the level of trust you put in your OS.
