Why Linux Is Different? | Understanding Linux | Part 3

This video dives deep into the functionalities and philosophies behind the three major operating systems: Windows, macOS, and Linux. We explore the key differences in:

Cost: Explains the freemium model of Windows, free and paid versions of Linux distros, and Apple's premium hardware pricing.
File Systems: Compares the drive-based structure of Windows to the hierarchical directory system used by macOS and Linux.
Shells and Package Managers: Highlights the command line focus of Linux and macOS (Bash) compared to Windows, and explores the concept of package managers for easy software installation.
Customization & Ease of Use: While Windows and Mac offer user-friendly interfaces, Linux shines with its extensive customization options and desktop environment choices.
Command Line vs. GUI: Discusses the unique dual approach of Linux, offering both a powerful command line and intuitive graphical interfaces.
Software Compatibility: Acknowledges Windows' lead in software availability, explores open-source alternatives for Linux, and mentions tools like Wine for running Windows applications.
Hardware Compatibility: Explains Apple's control over hardware for optimal compatibility, highlights the wider hardware range compatible with Windows and Linux, and mentions lightweight Linux distros for older machines.
Security & Stability: Focuses on the community-driven security benefits of open-source Linux, the vulnerability of popular Windows, and the decent security of macOS.
Community & Support: Highlights the vibrant and helpful Linux community with extensive online resources and collaborative projects.
