> if you think it would be safer

I looked, mostly just opinion not backed up by stats.

I'd like to see statistics on that. How many true to life exploits per user on each OS.

Of course it depends on your definition of security. Banking IS important. Figuring out which ads to put in front of you, not much. Amazon is the biggest data collector on that. I look at something on Amz & ads pop right up on youtube.

Here's one I don't believe:

Well, the website CVE Details1 lists just 55 vulnerabilities for Chrome OS. Compare that to 1,111 vulnerabilities for Windows 10, and a whopping 2,212 for Mac’s OS X; with five percent as many vulnerabilities as its closest competitor, it’s a pretty simple matter to declare Chromebook the safest option

I think we can agree Windows is shit, but Chrome & OSX seemed to be pretty secure last I looked.

My problem with Mac is I have old paid software so I can't upgrade easily. Chromes built in will do day to day so I don't mind auto upgrades.
