CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.

Windows machines won’t boot, and Mac and Linux work is abandoned because all their users are on twitter making memes.

Incredible work.

Yes and no. Linux is inherently more diverse. All the different distros doing things in different ways, sometimes with different components. It's not as much of a monoculture as Windows. There isn't a Linux that 90% is.

Not only that, with Linux you can/have to manually update. Which means I hear the news before running the update
