Windows 11 may soon no longer require a reboot when installing security updates every month.

    Linux only needs a reboot if you want to update the kernel, normally.

        You don’t need to pay money for live patching.
        They really just make you pay for having them do it for you.

          I think you forgot to mention what distro you are running.

      Eh, it depends. Other low-level things (systemd, glibc, etc) need a reboot too.

      Technically, but it’s safer to reboot nonetheless: https://fedoramagazine.org/offline-updates-and-fedora-35/
