A Senior Developer working mostly with PHP and JavaScript, with a bit of Python thrown in for good measure, all on Linux. My tooling is simple, it's GitLab and JetBrains where possible.
My work laptop (Windows) has Webroot installed. It's part of the company policy to have.
My personal laptop only runs Ubuntu, and I've not put antivirus or malware detection software on. I really should look into it just as a precaution, but I'm aware it also can bring a false sense of security

On ubuntu you can just
sudo apt install clamav clamav-daemon, or justclamavif you don't want it running in the background :DHow do you find WebRoot? I have it installed on personal machine and find it pretty unobtrusive
I don't even notice it's there. I only know it's there because I signed the renewals at work and checked the version we had.
It never seems to slow anything down.
