Got a new one today… An Ubuntu “Windows style” update screen…
I’ve been around for a while and this is the first time I’m seeing something like this. I’m wondering if I picked up something nasty or if this is something that other people are seeing.
In KDE at least there's a toggle to switch that behaviour. It's in System settings -> Software update -> Apply system updates. If you switch it to "Immediately" you get the standard package manager behaviour. Not sure if gnome has an equivalent.
Meanwhile Arch is like: You got problems after updating the kernel, systemd and sway? Well either you need to reboot, or you're fucked till the next patch lol
Nah, actually never had to reinstall. Not even after switching devices (Laptop -> Laptop), by just copying over /dev/sda3 to /dev/main/root, only "reinstalling" grub (grub-install) and recreating swap (on /dev/main/swap).
