I started daily driving Linux since I left school this year and used it before but mainly windows because school wanted us to run Word, Teams, etc.
Today I wanted to play games and haven’t set up my device for gaming and didn’t want to download the game twice (good internet).
Like a good PC user I wanted to do my updates. It really sucks on windows. I had three windows updates to make, one crashed. It rebooted my device 4 times. Also I needed to update other drivers and applications. Now I really appreciate package managers more than ever before.
I have never had that happen. Distros usually disable the built-in updater and even if they didn't, the updater merely shows a pop-up asking you to download the new version.
