It’s a torture for seldom used Linux PCs as well. In short any PC that isn’t updated for a long period of time is going to spend a long period of time updating with the possibility of breaking things.
I elaborated on another post, I can’t replicate this. I manage hundreds of windows PCs and run into this problem from time to time and it’s brutal slow to update. Sometimes hours.
My gaming desktop, which hardly gets used because I mainly use a steam deck now, also runs Linux. Maybe 5, 10 minutes at most to patch it.
