Winderz Updates
I used to be an network admin for 20 years for a small company. The company eventually went global with offices in the UK, Ecuador, Australia, Brazil. All of our servers, workstations, and laptops were Windows. Windows was terrible from 2010 on. Mostly due to bad patches. I used mint Linux at home on my laptop. I could do remote work on all my Windows servers etc, no problem. I would reboot all my servers on every Friday so they would stay working. Anyway, I retired in 2018. After one month, I got rid of all my Windows laptops, or converted them to Linux, replaced everything with Apple products. 5 iPads of various flavors, new MacBook Pro, a new mini Mac. All work flawlessly. Updates don’t break anything, wife likes them.
I still do some Windows support for friends. But no more Windows for me and I encourage people to switch to Apple or Linux. Windows was good for me. Provided job security. I stayed with one company. I was the only netadmin. It is about time Microsoft installed their AutoCrash app. You won’t have to decide what update to crash your servers.
