    I mean, I just set my system to only check for updates once a week.

    There’s no real reason to install every update, the second it’s available. If there’s a big security fix you should get asap, you’ll hear about it.

    This is the part i dislike like with Fedora compared with Ubuntu. It is so many updates.

    But since you can choose the time when to install the updates, there is a less of a problem.

    Normally you don’t notice any difference. And updates is much faster to install on Linux in general. Windows eats loads of CPU.

    This is why I use the LTS edition for my OS

    Edit: I’m a dum dum and didn’t know flatpak updates showed up like that.

    Try whatever ublue floats your boat, it all happens in the background, the power of atomic updates baby, if something breaks, just go back to the previous one…

      I get the same messages, despite using uBlue.
      It’s because of Flatpak.

      I disabled the notifications and enabled daily/ weekly auto-updates of Flatpaks, otherwise I would get spammed to oblivion.

    WTF are all these “Refresh of version…” updates? Am I unfresh? Do I need to bathe? (probably)

    Edit: It’s like it saw my post from yesterday and said “oh you like that do you?”

      I had been wondering about that too so I looked it up and apparently it’s just what discover displays whenever there’s an update that doesn’t change the version number which is things like rebuilds with a newer compiler. Very confusing wording, I feel like just “update of version [version]” would be less confusing
