plus why the hell are you trying to game on a chromebook, most have like a 1.4 ghz processor and like 2 GBs of ram
Don't expect to be playing tf2 on max settings at 60fps on a chromebook

Look at the minim um requirements for the games
half the time you need a more powerful pc.
Chromebooks are meant for browsing the internet and doing basic stuff, not playing video games.

I'm going to explain something to you
Upgrading to windows won't do anything, infact that takes up EVEN more resources, it will use up most of your ram on idol.
Plus it's not Linux's fault that you can run the games. it's your damn computer's fault. It doesn't have enough power to run most modern games smoothly.
as i said before, don't expect to game on your chromebook

security Linux is free and open source, the only viruses that can really affect you are rootkits, all you ahve to do is install stuff from trusted sources and keep your computer up to date
Most software is open source
many good alternatives for windows software
did i mention it's free and not $100+
(btw mac os is based on Unix)

This just made me less likely to entertain the idea of using Unix because iOS is literally trash.

Haha, a lot of people don't count OSX as a Unix OS
I don't really either, but it technically is

But a computer running windows will actually have the system resources to spare to use windows and will also have the resources to play a game or two. The only reasons a computer has for running linux or chrome os are if a computer actually isn't powerful enough to run windows, or if the owner is an absolute idiot for installing that operating system on a system that would run windows, or even mac

and i know that mac os x is a unix-based operating system, but i'm talking about linux. if you want security then use mac, which apple is very strict about keeping out of reach from government agencies that monitor activities on computers.
