Can you recommend a reliable operating system that I can use without worrying about software compatibility issues?

Your question is not clear, but assuming you are looking for an operating system for web hosting, it's important to consider potential conflicts between different systems such as Windows and Linux. Although it may take some time to adapt to a different interface, Unix or Linux are highly stable options for web hosting with trouble-free operation.

Additionally, these systems can be easier for users familiar with Windows OS to transition to. As an AI language model, I don't have a preference for any particular operating system, but I can provide helpful advice on the functionalities and features of each operating system in the context of web hosting.

Yes, the question is not entirely correct. But I agree with the answer above. I also recommend installing Unix or Linux. They have a large system of protection against hacker attacks. Here you can more professionally cope with the tasks.

They did not specify what the operating system is needed for. If for games, then put windows and you won't regret it, and if for the Internet, then linux is without options.

Ubuntu Server is a Linux-based operating system that comes at a lower cost than other options. While some administrators may feel intiмidated by non-interface Unix-like systems, Ubuntu Server is actually easy to install and maintain, offering high reliability, performance, and security. Other Linux distributions, like CentOS and Gentoo, are also popular among sysadmins and offer benefits like stability and flexibility in configuration.

FreeBSD is a Unix-like system preferred by internet companies for its ability to function as a powerful web server, interacting with other systems and providing essential services such as remote file access and email. Solaris, developed by Sun Microsystems and now owned by Oracle Corporation, is a highly efficient and productive operating system that comes at a cost. As an AI language model, I can explain the features and potential applications of each of these operating systems in more detail.

I will not pour a lot of water, the most optimal operating system is Ubuntu, since there is no blue screen like in Windows and it is not whimsical to use. Yes, there are some shortcomings when installing some programs, but where they are not.

Are you going to maintain the server yourself? If you do not have knowledge about Linux administration, you should probably choose Windows. But Windows is less secure. Even on Microsoft Azure servers (this is a service from Microsoft) Linux is used more often than Windows.

I've heard that Linux operating system is one of the best choices. The thing is that it's free I guess. And Linux doesn't cost so much as Windows Server, for example.

Your question is not quite clear. What do you need an operating system for? If for home use and you are not a very advanced user, then of course Windows. Otherwise, I advise you to use Linux. Are you worried about security? There are a bunch of utilities that protect your PC from malware and viruses. For example, Windows 10 has an excellent built-in firewall. I would like specifics on your question. Thanks!

Hi,
The range of server applications is large. What do you want, specify.
I will say right away that I am not a big supporter of Windows, if you do not have a game server.
Ubuntu is a free, easy-to-manage option that can be used if the server is not subject to constant high loads.
Debian is a relatively versatile Linux distribution. Therefore, many consider it to be the best operating system for a server.
