    Can somebody explain why Windows is so much slower than… basically every other OS? I mean, what does Windows-Update differently then a apt-get upgrade?

      Windows updates are kind of snapshots, they replace more files than necessary and keep the old files incase the update fails or you wish to roll back x update. Besides that you’re also given new packages and features you never asked for, because Windows loves their guinea pigs and doesn’t care if something breaks because of it.

      While I’m unsure of the actual reasons, the file system alone seems too be a pain.

    you would think that the death of hdd makes windows updates bearable and this shows. manufacturers still find a way to budget the SSD so much that you want to install Linux either way. like not too long ago i got a wd blue and it’s slower than expected. no problem with Fedora though :D

    While I feel your pain with the update, the memories of that red dot persistently killing my left index finger joints increases my rage.
