I'm an annoyed fedora user and it seems every day there's an update that requires reboot to install. I want the latest patches to keep the system secure, but this is annoying, and I use 2 laptops.

Crashes are just the system telling me to restart. As god intended.

Except if you ran the update from within a graphical session and your session crashed, as this will kill DNF, making the update incomplete and potentially corrupting files. I recommend you either:

  • use the graphical updaters
  • run dnf from a TTY
  • or use some of the atomic spins, having atomic updates on btrfs subvolumes

Switched to nix in the meantime.
