Linux wasn't friendly like 20so years ago when doing any sort of meaningful customization eventually led to using the terminal. No so anymore.

Also, nobody requires an antivirus. Antivirus is a firm of protection that's useful regardless of OS. Sure, Windows is an easier and more likely target but that doesn't mean an antivirus is pointless on Linux.

Finally, Linus Torvalds didn't release the Linux family. Linus released the Linux kernel which is the core of any of the Linux OSs but it's not an OS by itself.
