Pfffft it's so much easier to update when it doesn't shut your shit down for 1hr and instead downloads 573MB of updates in a tiny window you can leave up while going about your business and can choose when to do it by typing "sudo dnf update -y" and your password into said tiny window.
Besides, you can tell linux to auto update if you want, and you'll never notice it doing so in the background (well it'll likely tell you depending on the distro but if it didn't, you'd never notice as it is non-intrusive.)
the download does happen in the background. the installation is what requires shutting down. i only find out there's any update when the shutdown button is marked and whenever I'm done i tell it to install the update and shutdown. it's really not as bad as you guys desperately seem to want it to be.
Oh my mistake, I didn't mean to say the wrong part took 1hr+ and it was actually the other part, silly me. Meanwhile on linux there's still no such annoyance. You do know we all used to use windows and got fed up with it's bullshit and jumped ship right? You can stay a frog in boiling water all you want, those of us who jumped out of the pot can see the burner.
whatever floats your boat. keep getting things wrong so you can feel better about jumping ship i guess?
Lmao you really think "nuh uh the long annoying part isn't the download it's the install" is better than "well linux has neither issue" don't you? Bless your heart.
... no? i guess you're having a different conversation in your head than the one your eyes should be reading.
Oh I forgot to mention "nuh uh windows doesn't do that thing it definitely does, you and everyone else who ever experienced it are just crazy."
you are sounding more crazy with every comment, that part is accurate.
Lol sure buddy, whatever helps you cope. Why don't you go infect yourself with some ransomware hmm?
too bad Linux doesn't protect mental health
That's what trolling you is for.
oh boy that's weak.
No u. Sorry to disappoint, I can't dedicate any more time than passing quips to this waste of a conversation though, unfortunately I do have a life outside of lemmy.
