Not having to reboot after updates is my favorite part of Linux so far.

  Not having to reboot almost ever is also pretty nice.

    Ubuntu forces a reboot on kernel upgrades fwiw.

      I said almost. How often are you upgrading your kernel? Most of us don't upgrade very often.
      • mod 12y ago
        Whenever the automatic update picks it up. So, basically all the time--every week or two, anyway.

    How come I can't reply to "mod" below? https://i.imgur.com/k75wRiK.png https://i.imgur.com/k75wRiK.png All Linux distros require a restart for kernel upgrades if you want to use that new kernel version. Or are you saying that Ubuntu actually forces the user to restart after a new kernel is installed?
