So either Linux has effortless, painless updates that never break, or Linux is malware.

Which one is it?

[–] Petter1@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

🥸one can argue that only most distros are malware under this definition

[–] Andrenikous@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

When everything is malware, nothing is.

The difference may be Windows forces to update, while i.e. Ubuntu has several older versions still working.

No it doesn't, unless you have it set that way.

I love Linux but most complaints about Windows is just lack of user knowledge and getting mad that it doesn't work like Linux.

[–] bigFab@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Windows updates anyways after several restarts choosing not to. I guess it's some kind of default setting that may be set off too.

What about importing tabs without consent? Is that also lack of user knowledge? Even when it was turned off in settings?
