Windows preloads the entire desktop it seems, before logging in. That is pretty great. Apps starting is the same, just more bloat often. Flatpaks make it more equal though. Firefox does some nice UI-preloading too, and FF on Windows is actually more secure than on Linux ironically.

So there are things to fix, but comparing breaking windows updates to never breaking and way faster immutable rpm-ostree updates, while you use the system normally, its worlds.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
