Well that didn't go as expected...

For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!
There are very few Linux viruses. With its low market share, it's not a juicy target, or at least not desktop users.
Yeah that kinda thinking is really not useful. Linux is a very very juicy target these days due to your thinking. Desktop Linux installations are riddled with poor security settings and many server features enabled by default. IOT devices and self spun servers are regularly deployed unsecured as well.

Yeah, even if it IS true that it's not juicy right now, doesn't that mentality run directly contradictory to the desire for linux to become more popular? We're trying to increase market share, so the "not a juicy target" idea is a very wreckless way of thinking.
I disagree. Linux is run on a large number of servers. It may be a less tempting target for Trojan style malware, but exploits and vulnerabilities for Linux are very valuable since you can gain access to large amounts of valuable data.
