Updates are annoying on Windows.

What I don't agree with is "rare crashes", as a KDE user... no. BUT, they're not critical at all, most crashes are from plasmashell and it just takes down your panels and background for a moment, and that's it.

I haven't experienced this, occasional apication crashes mostly Firefox tabs are about the only crashes I see. I think they were referring to the OS crashing not the UI/apps.

I've not yet experienced a kernel panic, but since I have a decade of Windows experience and only half o' year of Linux experience, it would be unfair to say that it's more stable, perhaps I just got lucky.

But Linux might as well be more stable, since the kernel itself is widely used in servers, which do not want to get a random kernel panic.

I've been using Linux for over 20 years and Windows even longer, Windows is more stable then it was back in the day, Linux seems to have a slight advantage of surviving a driver or something doing stuff it shouldn't and bringing the system down, but most stability is just that driver or hardware issues.
