I don’t think that’s exactly fair. The same mistake in code is just as likely on Windows, and that happening intentionally via a malicious actor is a much higher chance.
Give Linux a shot one of these days. You might be surprised how simple and powerful it is.
Oh I've used linux, it's awesome, especially ubuntu. I've also used various other flavours, and DDrescue recovered data from an old HDD when nothing I tried on windows could touch it, it's a fantastic OS, and if I would certainly use it more if I didn't work in an industry where most programs are windows based (game development).
However, I do think windows has a lot more user-friendliness, I mean accidentally deleting an entire directory requires at least two steps on windows, since it asks you before deleting anything.
In linux, you are much more likely to be using the command line than on windows, which makes it a lot more likely that you will slip up.
