From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What crap machine are you running? I can open the store on my Surface 3 I've had for nearly a decade.
It can break if you disable telemetry.
I don't think getting instagram, or photoshop off the microsoft store is giving anyone a virus. And I've never gotten a virus from it in the few times I've used it.
Yes, I read that. A couple thousand people out of billions of users were affected, and the problem was resolved. It's really not as big of an issue as you're making it out to be.
