My father, an IT professional since before there was IT, once said to me “One of the reasons why I like Norton is it will check if there’s updates to my software for me.”
Oh you bitter winter child.
sudo zypper dup
sudo flatpak update
Unfortunately two commands. I COULD make it a shell script so one use of sudo covers both the zypper and flatpak, and auto-accept the nvidia drivers and whatever. But it just doesn’t seem necessary.
PS: Used to be sudo emerge -(some flags) @world. I should go back to that actually. Gentoo was awesome.
If you only use one package manager, you only need to update one package manager :)
I avoid flat and appimages like the plague
There’s a couple packages I use where Flatpak is actually the recommended version. Otherwise I nearly always use the distro package manager.
nded version. Otherwise I nearly always use the
likewise i have an occasional dpkg. or container :) but man do i try
winget
Flatpak , apt , snap, appimages ,dpkg… its not all single click after all…
thats why i simply dont use fplatpacks and such. only pacaman/pikaur
On bazzite it’s “ujust update”
Doesn’t ubuntu integrate the flatpaks upgrades into apt?
Idk. I don’t use ubuntu or flatpaks.
Flatpaks rule!
(Okies, since others are doing comments with their 1 command to upgrade everything, I’ll do mine too…)
pmm update ; pmm upgrade(… Though I generally just upgrade per stratum as needed.)
sudo pacman -

If all my software updates at once, how will I know which one broke everything?
sudo – sh -c ‘apt-get update; apt-get upgrade -y; apt-get full-upgrade -y; apt-get autoremove -y; apt-get autoclean -y’
sudo pacman -Syu
and the 2 hours of troubleshooting to find out why you status bar doesnt work anymore
my favorite activity is reminding myself to run grub-mkconfig
Better than reinstalling your system every two years and living in dependency/container hell.
i usually go with
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autopurge && flatpak upgradeif i’m on a deb distro, andtopgradeon ublue distros
What about container images?
Winget is actually decent now
Because its basis was an FOSS package manager, which in typical Microsoft fashion got EEE’d.
sudo dnf up

Not bad, but her nipples are in the wrong places.
Also, fuck off.
I came back to see this removed comment and now I can only imagine what it was
Why is Windows software advertising always so trashy? It’s giving gas station magazine
I feel this one has a bit of a gambling site/slot machine thing going on. The green hue kinda reminds me of the tables and the golden light is the glistening money prizes.
And, you know, trusting another piece of software to manage your updates all at once on windows,…now that’s what I call gambling.
Because target audience.
No, I don’t think the audience at Target is much better /s
Hey kid theres a guy wearing a trench coat in the alleyway selling co-pilot AI software.
Junkie in the gutter groaning: “I can get you some clippy!”
He showed me his pp.
I thought it was a Fortnite ad at first glance.
Tux’s right eye being occluded by the guy’s black hair, and his left eye being partly shaded into a more angular shape makes it look like he’s giving an evil smirk.
Lol I was gonna comment that too!
Winget update --all
winget upgrade --all --include-unknownfor ALL™From my experience if it requires this it was installed through a different method and is already being auto updated and when you run that it just fails and still shows up in the list, your experience may vary but you can solve that by uninstalling it and installing it through winget if you really care enough to uninstall it
