    But you don’t need to restart Linux for updates most of the time, basically just kernel updates, and those aren’t often done more than once a month or so, less for fixed point release distros

      And even then, there’s the hot patching potential for a running kernel to upgrade without reboot.

      And you don’t necessarily need to reboot Windows for all of their updates either if you keep it updated. But there’s quite a few updates I’ve run on Linux especially servers that have been neglected when I’ve gone into companies because people are like herder I don’t need to patch or update anything on linux that do require reboots.
