How are you liking it? Protection wise, resource wise etc?
So far so better. No idea about protection as I don't do malware testing. As long as it's better than the default Windows Defender AV then it should be better

At least better than ESET IS tested recently. I can see it slows down my laptop and throws up a lot of warnings when I went to visit sites I want to visit

Good to know. Avast is better than ESET? Curious where you saw this?
