Linux's security advantages come from its design—not simply because it has a smaller market share. Trusted repositories, strong permissions, and open source transparency all contribute to a more secure and customizable experience.
Don Watkins (@linuxnerd) explains why these principles continue to make Linux a compelling desktop operating system.

🐧 Als plötzlich Schluss war...
Vor wenigen Tagen besuchte ich wieder einmal OpenOS.at – eine Webseite, die ich seit vielen Jahren immer wieder gern genutzt habe. Statt der gewohnten Startseite erschien jedoch nur noch ein kurzer Hinweis:
„Diese Webpräsenz wurde am 26. Juni 2026 (nach 12 Jahren Betrieb) eingestellt.“
Damit endet nach zwölf Jahren ein Projekt, das für viele Linux- und BSD-Interessierte eine feste Anlaufstelle war.
Das erste Bild zeigt die frühere Startseite von OpenOS.at – mit aktuellen Distributionen, Nachrichten, Statistiken und Veranstaltungen aus der Welt freier Betriebssysteme. Das zweite Bild zeigt, was heute davon übrig geblieben ist.
Warum OpenOS eingestellt wurde, wissen wir bisher nicht. Vielleicht gibt es persönliche Gründe, vielleicht fehlte die Zeit oder Unterstützung. Vielleicht fand sich einfach niemand, der das Projekt weiterführen wollte. Solange es keine offizielle Erklärung gibt, sollten wir darüber nicht spekulieren.
Mich bringt das jedoch zum Nachdenken.
Viele von uns nutzen täglich freie Software, Webseiten, Foren oder Dienste. Wir freuen uns über aktuelle Informationen, hilfreiche Programme und funktionierende Server – oft ganz selbstverständlich und kostenlos.
Doch hinter all dem stehen Menschen.
Menschen, die ihre Freizeit investieren. Menschen, die Server betreiben, Inhalte pflegen, Fehler beheben, Updates einspielen und Fragen beantworten. Oft über viele Jahre hinweg und meist ehrenamtlich.
Gerade Projekte, die von einer einzelnen Person oder einem kleinen Team getragen werden, leisten Erstaunliches. Gleichzeitig sind sie aber auch besonders verletzlich. Wenn die Motivation nachlässt, das Privatleben mehr Zeit fordert oder gesundheitliche Gründe dazukommen, kann selbst ein langjähriges Projekt plötzlich enden.
Vielleicht erinnert uns das Ende von OpenOS daran, dass Open Source und freie Communities vom Mitmachen leben.
Nicht nur nutzen.
Nicht nur konsumieren.
Sondern auch einmal Danke sagen, Fehler melden, Dokumentationen schreiben, anderen helfen, einen kleinen Betrag spenden oder selbst mit anpacken.
Denn genau davon lebt unsere Gemeinschaft.
Ich möchte mich deshalb heute bei allen bedanken, die im Hintergrund dafür sorgen, dass freie Projekte überhaupt existieren – egal ob Entwickler, Administratoren, Übersetzer, Autoren oder Community-Mitglieder.
Ihr macht das Internet ein Stück besser. ❤️
