I have default windows defender, but didnt even know its antivirus lol. Is there any antivirus installed by default on any popular linux distro? What do you use?

I feel like antivirus can just annoy me when trying to crack something, but maybe defender protects me and im not aware.

    Contrary to other’s recommendations I’m gonna say that it isn’t a bad thing to run an AV on your files. Even if it’s not going to affect you, you might not want to arbor virii in your library. ClamAV is the main anti-virus for Linux.
