Enterprise Linux: "we updated last night. We'll probably reboot this weekend. No cause for alarm."
I'm getting a bit tired of seeing this meme get reposted over and over and over and over again.
I see you're a Windows user.
As much as I hate Mac from the few times I used it for work and helping my wife I never remember paying for an update.
Also it may not be much but windows does get extra features in the yearly feature update. Recent updates brought built in winrar and the last one let you have tabs in notepad.

And break tons of shit you already had figured out.
It's kinda the opposite on Mac and Windows. macOS updates have actually been free for a long time whereas Microsoft technically still charges for updates
You have to add Android now! I’d go with something like “cool, time for a new phone!”
Debian Users: "It better fuckin not be"
Semi-related but I remember the ancient days when the original iPod touch (not iPhone though) initially had paid OS upgrades - not too crazy for back then when the firmware was often done when the device shipped save for maybe a small patch or three. But there were also larger updates too but not too common.
And then I remember Steve getting up on stage proclaiming that Apple “has found a way!” to make it free.
In my setup I was partially upgraded to GNOME 45 before I can upgrade to Fedora 39 thanks to Flatpak
As a Linux / Windows and Mac user this tired and inaccurate
Hint: :q!
