Please read the courtesy e-mail for an executive summary of our service. We also recommend that you read answers to FAQ. To hide Tor usage to your ISP connect to a VPN server. Once the connection is established use Tor. Kind regards 1 rickjames reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Windows is an OS that requires you to download many files from many sources to get what you want. Linux works the opposite way in that (practically) everything you'll ever need is held in software repositories. Repositories ('repos') are servers hosted by the Linux distribution creators which contain the latest packages for the distribution you're using. So instead of going to Mozilla's site to download Firefox, then to Google for Chrome, Steam for... well... Steam... you can just issue a command on your computer to download and install them directly from the people who maintain your flavour of Linux. Most Linux distros these days have 'app stores' or equivalent software where you can search and install (or uninstall, or upgrade) packages using an easy interface. This isn't always 100% true (for example you can often get newer packages or updates for proprietary drivers etc direct from manufacturers before they hit many distributions' repos). However it's a good rule of thumb. Note again that no Windows apps are available natively, so yes you can get cross platform apps like Firefox,Steam, etc as noted earlier, but you can't directly install MS Office for example (use Libre Office or WPS instead). A web page called 'Linux is not Windows' is old now but still relevant. Persevere, you'll learn a whole lot and be safer and more secure for it. Quote Share this post Link to post
