I respect people who choose Macs and MacOS but there are reasons why I use Linux Mint and other versions of GNU/Linux.

Isn’t it ever! The install update now or remind later notifications is classic Windows UI.

OS X through around 10.4 would run most updates in the background and you could restart later at your own leisure. It was fantastic back then.

And what time did it actually take in the end?

I'd say between 15 to 20 minutes.

For me, about a hour and 2 (or 3?) reboots. And this is minor version update that consists only in bugfixes. I don't understand why overwritting few megabytes of files takes so long time and requires multiple reboots.

Lemme guess - your fan is buzzing too?
