Doesn’t it often need a reboot to apply some updates?

Org-mode mostly does this already. Just needs a shortcut to surround the marked area with the correct symbols.
Thanks, had a network error and jerboa said it failed to comment

That’s not how double negatives work. The alternative would be:
Even though there’s no evidence that chromium is more secure.

Not really:
RHEL is paid if you need more devices than the free license provides
SEL and Ubuntu Pro don’t have any free licenses as far as I remember
you can mostly use windows without paying anything
Ubuntu, RHEL and Fedora use it as the default and they are very big distros. Idk if it’s enough but that’s what I know.
I mean, that’s pretty irrelevant. If you were for example at least comparing the downloads of fedora Vs spins, that would be a beginning of something.
Idk. KDE was unstable for me and it always has bugs after major releases. They should test things better.
In case it wasn’t obvious: stability is not reliability
So does GNOME, especially when you have a lot of extensions
KDE is pretty crap in both regards
Personal opinion.
Is that why every distro comes with vanilla GNOME? Oh wait…
But hey at least it’s getting better over time.
Meanwhile over the years KDE got lighter than GNOME while constantly piling on features.

Citation very much needed
one of the most stable DEs on Linux
Hardly, but I’m guessing you’re thinking of reliability instead. Not really surprising when it’s so stripped down that vanilla GNOME is pretty much unusable. When you extend it, in order to get a proper DE, that goes right out the window.
That fact makes it especially funny that vanilla GNOME is by far the fattest DE around. How it manages to use up more resources than KDE is beyond me.
Pre-blowback: fucking children is fine if they consent to it
Post-blowback: friends explained to me that it hurts the children and that they can’t consent
And I think they rewrote a bunch of C libraries in order to have a better cross-platform compiler for C and zig. Or something along those lines
You can’t replace it.
Zig?
The more snaps you have, the slower your machine will boot. It’s uniquely shit technology that should die already.
You’re ignoring the difference between using something declaratory and imperatively. Just because it’s difficult to get to that one liner, it doesn’t change the fact you’ll still only use that one command. Git by it’s nature requires you to use different commands to achieve different results. Home-manager allows you to both update your packages and delete all of them with the same command, because that command is “sync the state with the source of truth”.
It’s much simpler because you’re using text files to define the expected state, the cli is there only to tell nix to figure out what it needs to do and to get on with it. Meanwhile with git you’re manually doing each of the steps until you reach the desired state.
I only need cd ~/dotfiles/nix/ && nix-channel --update && nix flake update && home-manager switch
for everyday package management. It’s the nix version of apt update upgrade and install.
nix shell
and nix run
are pretty useful as well, and you’d want home-manager generations
to rollback.
The confusion arises because there are 5 different ways to do the same thing, the non-experimental methods shouldn’t be used even though they’re recommended in the official docs, and you need to get lucky to get the info that you can use home-manager and that one liner.
Flying would be a very high demand service and could be sold for much more than what a train ticket costs. If it was feasible, it would have already been done.
I was talking about regular fedora. It’s not that you have to reboot, but you don’t get to use those updates until you do. The most obvious example is updating the kernel and its modules.
