No restart require on Linux is a joke, right? Because I get updates that require restarts as often as I get them on Windows when updating Mint.
Really? I need to restart my Windows less often, Fedora asks me every other day restart my PC to install updates
Fedora issue. I restart my Debian machines maybe once every 4-6 weeks.
"Issue" implies that there is something wrong with it it's simple a different release model, Fedora just got the newer packages, for example Gnome 43 on Debian vs Gnome 47 on Fedora (obviously I'm talking about the stable releases). If you prefer the Debian way of doing things that's great but I don't.
Arch is on the bleeding edge and it doesn't ask for a reboot. I think it asks for a reboot to load the kernel parts that have updated. Arch probably just assumes you'll do it eventually, but if you don't it'll just keep running the current kernel.
