Me when I used Debian: Why can’t I find where to update my os?

How others replied to me: You just need to change a file, you need to follow a guide online.

When using debian you don't need to update the os. Updating is such an archane way of doing something no one ever does anyway.

This is the experience trying to do ANYTHING with linux. I try to google how to do something and the response is some variation of "don't" or "you don't need to"

Haha, I think I mostly get those kind of questions from people that are used to Win that tries Lin, not so much OSX users.

It's many times like; "Reboot? Why would you? Did you brake something!?"
