if you are serious about security of your puter:
1) Do NOT use windows, use linux only. If you absolutely need windows set up a dual boot and never do anything confidential on windows
2) Learn to use partition encryption and use it to store anything confidential on all of your devices.
3) Never install any dubious software on your puter (including browser extensions)
4) Never access confidential info on an unsecure device (like any smartphone)

Nice advice so windows isn't advisable for those people who want to have a better security. So I've got a lot of things to learn first thanks for this.

Windows can be secure if you do it right, but can be more difficult to properly secure. It is also a bigger target for attackers as many more people are using it so more malware is written to be compatible with Windows.

Yes, I understand that the demand of Windows is high and that's why attackers are staying more with windows too. But if there is no phishing link or malware that I'll click I'm going to be fine, right?
