There are many reasons as to why people run GNU/Linux (been watching Stallman Vids lately). From privacy to freedom of software to stability. For me: It's the most logical OS in the way it works, I can depend on my pc working right away 100%. Simply put: To me it is the best OS out there, at least for how I work. That being said, the same goes for iOS on phones and tablets, I know they spy on me, but they enable me to get my work done and I think that is the most important point...

Well the alternative is Android, and I'm pretty sure Google is worse in the spying and privacy department.
@ghil There is also e-OS from the e.foundation, I tried it, but by getting rid of most things spying in any way I can't get Apps working I actually have no alternative to. But I use I as my private phone, and love it :-)
@thewk
Off to the internet, I need to know about e-OS now. Thanks!
@obi F-Droid for the fuckin' win! Well... Foxy Droid in my case.
@obi
Yes it is, but sadly many apps depend on having it around and won't work without it. Maybe if microg gets a little farther in its development that problem will be solved....
