What are the distros that would align with these categories?
Cool, more free stuff:
Not again!
Ooh, only Ubuntu pro:
I don't think the first two are distro specific, more a question of mindset. Unless there are distros that force update your system like some other OSs, which could cause the second picture to happen more often.
On fedora atomic all updates are automatic. I don't even see that they happen. They just happen in the background. I love it.
Neat! I was just thinking, if it starts updating the kernel as you turn it off, you'd have to wait a minute for it to finish. M$ style. Has that never happened?
No. That's not how it works. It installs a new image alongside the current one and once you boot again it simply boots into the new image. Never ever wait for an update again.
Oh right, atomic distros work differently, didn't think about that! That is convenient!
Very convenient because if something happens where the update breaks something, you can just boot the previous image.
Does it give you a choice at startup, similar to the Grub menu, or do you have to do something to bring the option up?
During boot up.
That looks really handy, thanks :)
I've just downloaded Fedora Kinoite to try with my Ventoy drive (I refer the KDE layout :) )
For even less pain try a ublue variant (Aurora or Bazzite probably for KDE depending if you game). No faffing around with codecs and RPMFusion etc...
The first could be any decent distro like Debian, Fedora, Mint.
The second would probably be rolling release because of the amount of packages lmao.
