To be fair, Linux has a lot of updates also.

The difference is that the control on when and which updates to apply lies entirely with the user--not the OS.

“People are tired of constant microsoft updates.”

ABSOLUTELY! I use a number of applications, some rather osbcure, on Windows 11. Seems many times after a Windows “update”, SOMETHING I depend on doesn’t work right anymore.

I have a dedicated Linux system on a laptop but it’s easier to boot from a USB drive to Linux on the Windows PC. Linux is more stable and has few problems.

Only major problem for me is that most programs I use daily only work on Windows, but there are workarounds for that, too.
