People avoiding updating windows because of how long it takes your machine out of commission for and how opaque the process is has been a meme since like Windows XP. It’s never five minutes. Plus the future hours saved not having to deal with windows bullshit.
That is so much bullshit. Any windows update will run you 20+ minutes. My wife had not booted her windows partition for a few months, had to use it because the taxes institution in our country still runs on Excel macros or some shit, and the updates took over an hour and a half and 4 fucking restarts.
I just set up a brand new windows laptop last night for our run ing club. Refurb straight from Dell. It downloaded updates and installed updates as part of the installation. That was easily 45 minutes. Then it booted up and it had more updates. 2 more reboots and all of those were done. 2.5 hours from unboxing to done (4:27PM to 6:51Pm).
CachyOS install is 15 minutes rounding up and it’s blazing fast.
so you could have updated a windows machine in 5 minutes, but you have installed bazzite in 20 mins
Generous to say Bazzite installation takes 20 minutes
Even more generous to say a Windows update takes 5 minutes
I’ve installed Kubuntu on several machines and it usually takes about that long, with updates.

Yes, but then they would still be left with Windows
Eighteen of those minutes were waiting for windows to shut down so they could boot the machine from usb
