Ok.....so I'm just gonna ask, because I've noticed something. There was a time I could update my machine (Lenovo ThinkPad T-430 / T-420 laptops.) that wouldn't take long and I'd be able to continue to use my machines for hours until I was ready to either reboot, shutdown, etc. Is it me?...or has recently Fedora started to behave like Windows?....in the fact that now when I do updates?....I HAVE to reboot my machine!!!???? I thought the whole premise of moving away from having to reboot for each and every update, patch, and fix was one of the major reasons some people LEFT Windows to BEGIN WITH!? Is this going to be the "norm"?.....is it because Microsoft has integrated themselves within the Open Source community that now.....the community is starting to behave like WINDOWS!?.....because if so?...I may have to start looking for another distro. The days of me having to reboot just because the SYSTEM wants me to?......SHOULD have ended with the cessation of my usage of
Microsoft Windows.
I assume GNOME is your desktop, yes?
Why not just update from the command line? "dnf update". Then you can decide if you'd like to reboot.
And use 'Tracer' to see what was impacted and what you should restart
(sometimes just an app, or logout/in, or reboot).
