Comment on Why the Update Fever Is Bad

Comments

It's not like we always have the choice not to upgrade, either because of security (IoT anyone?), because one of the giant's shoulder a software has been built on has gone wild or has its own security fix to deploy (https://github.com/blog/2470-introducing-security-alerts-on-...), or just because updates are automatically installed and it's too late when you realize it's broken :-/

Edit: Android devices does not suffer from this fever, btw. How good. Really. https://danluu.com/android-updates/
