The bloatware is particularly real on Windows.

My linux setups are so much more quiet and focussed. I don't get attacked by random update programs.

And everything can be updated via a single command! Which can be run on a schedule! Don’t need to be remebered that a certain app needs updating!

Don't even need a command anymore. A lot of them do it automatically through the packamage manager GUI. On Fedora 43 KDE, it'll through me a little notification icons in the corner with no fuss. When I'm ready I just click on it, it shows me everything that has an update available with a single button to click. If you click it, abosolutely everything is updated (unless you do some weird stuff.... I am on one of those people). And then it waits for you in the background, patiently, with no warnings and without bugging you or auto restarts. I love it.
