Conclusion about Linux

In conclusion, Linux is the best operating system you could use and I advise you to use it, Any open source software project is no more than the sum of what its contributors put into it. The Linux kernel has progressed as quickly and as well as it has because it has been helped by an impressively large group of developers, all of whom are working to make it better. The kernel is a premier example of what can be done when thousands of people work together toward a common goal.

What is the difference between Ubuntu and Linux

Linux is a generic term referring to Unix-like operating systems, and it has various types of distributions; Ubuntu is just one of them.
Linux is based on the Linux kernel, Ubuntu was based on the Linux system.

What is the difference between Linux and free BSD

1: license 

As we all know, the Linux operating system is licensed under the GPL. This license is used to help prevent the inclusion of closed source software and to ensure the availability of the source code.

The BSD License is much less restrictive and even allows for the distribution of binary-only source. The core difference, however, can be looked at like this: The GPL gives you the right to use the software any way you want, but you MUST ensure the source code is available to the next person who uses it (or your variation of it). The BSD license does not require that you make sure the next person who uses (or modifies your code) makes that code available.

2: control 

The BSD code is not “controlled” by any one user, which many people see as a big bonus. Whereas the Linux kernel is mostly controlled by Linus Torvalds (the creator of Linux), BSD does not have a single person dictating what can and can’t go into the code. Instead, BSD uses a “core team” to manage the project. This core team has more say in the direction of the project than all non-core members of the BSD community.

The difference between windows and linux

1. You  have full access to the source code in Linux  and you  have no access to the source code in windows.

2. There is a command line in Linux, but windows does not have

What are some disadvantages of linux?

1. Becoming familiar with the Linux operating system requires patience as well as a strong learning curve.

2. Though Linux developers have done a great job at creating alternatives to popular Windows applications, there are still some applications that exist on Windows that have no equivalent Linux application.

3. Because Linux is a free, open source system, there are no legal comebacks if you find software isn’t up to scratch or if it causes a problem.

4. Many of the programs you are used to in Windows will only run on Linux through a complicated emulator.

What are some advantages of Linux?

1. The most obvious advantage of using Linux is the fact that it is free to obtain.

2. In line with the costs, the security aspect of Linux is much stronger than that of Windows.

3. With Linux, you have the power to control just about every aspect of the operating system.

4. Unlike Windows, Linux does not easily become bogged down with spyware, viruses, trojans, etc., which can greatly reduce a computer’s performance.

5. Linux systems rarely crash, and when they do, the whole system normally does not go down.

6. Linux is perfect for those old computers with barely any processing power or memory.

 

what is linux?

is a Unix-like and POSIX-compliant computer operating system   assembled under the model of free and open source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux Kernal , An operating system kernal  first released on 5 October 1991 by Linus Trovalds.
