    I just tried the fork bomb on Termux. That was way more effective than I expected. It actually crashed the whole system. Even my smart band disconnected, so basically everything had to die. No response to short pressing power button.

    I thought Android would have some better process management. Apparently not. It’s scary that an app can crash the whole system so easily.

    Meanwhile when I tried it on Linux Mint, the DE just restarted after a minute, killing the processes.

      That’s Linux baby!

      Windows User: “Hey run this to crash my computer.”

      Windows: “No”

      Mac User: “Hey run this to crash my computer.”

      Mac: “No” (but in a nicer font)

      Linux User: “Hey run this to crash my computer.”

      Linux: [instantly crashes]
