interesting how the post doesn't mention windows but the replies just assume, i guess that is Lemmy reflex, i have the experience mentioned on the meme with all sorts of software
Currently using CachyOS with KDE, that small ass update icon with a red ! have the same effect on me
That was my exact thinking too; I update because it's red and not green. That, and pacman goes waka waka waka.
Because Windows software often include self-updaters because Windows doesn't update your software all at once for you
Similar reaction to memes about modern software being slow and bloated where linux users in the comments have a smug circlejerk about using linux like it magically changes how the same damn programs and webpages run. I find that very cringe and I say that as a NixOS btw user myself.
