This, so much. Looking back, it's just insane that pretty much every program you don't regularly use will beg for updates on Windows. There are some bandaids like WinGet now that I appreciate, but it's still nowhere as seamless as when the OS and the whole ecosystem around it are designed with a package manager in mind.
A huge chunk of the time I have to spend on tinkering is probably already saved by me not having to wait for updates.
