You know if you use temple_os you don’t have to worry about updates?
It is impossible to update perfection
You do have to worry about some things though. I couldn’t say what those things are, but I have a hunch that temple_os users have some pretty unique worries.
Help! My boot loader got corrupted by SATAN!
You need to excorcise those daemons!
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
This is why semver is a thing. If a program is released under 1.1.x, and then recompiled with a new compiler, then it can be 1.1.y where y > x
A recompilation or repackaging of Linux 6.6.6 is still Linux 6.6.6
Yeah, but in the context of flatpak isn’t the distribution managed by the developer themselves? Also, in the distro release version case, they usually add something distro specific to differentiate it.
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.
Yeah I think I’m gonna do that, thanks
That little up arrow in the sys tray might as well be a gun to my head
Which is why you reduce the frequency at which the system checks for updates.
Once I get notified it’s irresistible.
Joke’s on you, I use Arch and already reboot twice a day for updates.
You’re rebooting for updates?? I just use an infinite recursion of chroots.
“The day the chroots came chrashing down”
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.
At some point I think some devs might be refactoring a switch-case into an if-else and calling it an “update” to troll downstreams.
apparently fools consider a finished app “dead” or “abandoned” if there isn’t a new release every week. so yeah, dev’s will just change a comment to not have their apps shunned
xfce ftw
new features? We don’t do that here.
Wait what, the newest version has been released december 2022?
The point of my original post was that their update cadence is slower. The point of my followup reply is that they are not devoid of updates, either.
They have a release every 1-2 years, and it’s packed full for various tweeks, improvements, and new features. They fix broken shit, and enhance where it makes sense.
I don’t need my window manager to get fad features, and I don’t need constant updates. It does what I want it to do already.
xfce ftw.
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.
Atomic updates!? I don’t think my PC has the proper radiation shielding for atomic updates…
Flatpak runtimes aren’t part of atomic updates.
but flatpak-system-update.service is a part of ublue
