yah, I'm not thrilled with Microsoft's direction on windows... however I quite running windows as my primary OS 20 years ago... my advice, is this, regardless of os preferences, in today's environment you really need to run a currently supported os.. if that vendor is moving in a direction you can't support, it might be time to look for alternatives if you can switch considering that some applications require a specific os/version.Bearcatz said:Yea....

I've talked about this in another thread. I have a nice little VM setup the way I like and spin up a fresh copy anytime I want some anonymity. Not windows, no saved logins, tracking cookies, favorites, etc. Fresh and clean every boot with just my settings and then delete it when I'm done. Using liveboot is easier but this is faster as I can have settings already configured including complex ones.Sprint3473 said:yah, I'm not thrilled with Microsoft's direction on windows... however I quite running windows as my primary OS 20 years ago... my advice, is this, regardless of os preferences, in today's environment you really need to run a currently supported os.. if that vendor is moving in a direction you can't support, it might be time to look for alternatives if you can switch considering that some applications require a specific os/version.

Not that either one is drastically better than the other by default. However, it's literally impossible to make ios safer than android.Sprint3473 said:additionally, IOS does have a default firewall and is one of the more secure unlike Android phone choices, d. which is yah... like Swiss cheese
