Oh wow, I wouldn’t want anything automatic to be happening to my installation, hell naw. 🚫🙅♂️

Correct. I have a dual boot with windows and when I rebooted to Linux I got stuck installing updates. I’m not particularly opposed to the idea of automatic updates, but I am vehemently against blocking entire computer use while it occurs w/o a way to cancel. I was also mad that to my knowledge this was the default and not an option in feature.

The time it takes for these updates is also not nearly the same. You can easily be waiting 10-15 minutes for a large Windows update.
