FOSS has many advantages, but thinking that FOSS is synonymous with security and privacy is a very common mistake, they are not the main purpose in FOSS https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/linux.html

Except FLOSS is usually better for privacy at least. Because you can't hide tracking code in FLOSS software, and a lot of FLOSS software is targeted to privacy conscious people.

Linux user? They obviously talk about DOS

[–] AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Wait, am I led to believe that they wrote all of DOS in assembly? Or did they only release the compiled version to screw with people?

Yes and yes (altough I think you meant transpiled) :D
