I don't understand. writing large amount of data at once breaks nand controller? and how that's an os issue?

God damn, after ~20 years of being off Windows reading about problem after problem on each and every update is exhausting.
How do you all (Windows users) deal with this shit?
Same way as I do on Linux. There was a post a few weeks back about an Arch update breaking vlc if you don't manually install a new optional dependency after an update split the package.

I've never had an issue of this gravity on Windows. I use Linux and it has its issues as well. Stability is not why I use Linux lmao

Start looking into desktop environments, everyones quick to suggest distros, but de imo is more what matters day to day, most distros just work and will help you grab the same stuff in different background ways and/or with different terminal commands.
They should all have de options or have community alternatives of them that come with a certain de like kde or gnome.
Close to windows, minimal customization (still more than default windows
Cinnamon
Iphone + cydia, opinionated base experience with extensions that can completely change the look and add stuff like panels/dock
gnome + extension store
Windows but ultra customizable, tons of settings and directly customizable from the ui itself by right clicking
kde plasma
Keyboard user, hand always on it, like shortcuts and code editor based customization with documentation

Solid advice!
And remember that "DE hopping" is much easier than distro hopping, as you can install multiple and try them out without reinstalling your system.
Personally I'm a shill for Plasma, as I think that their motto "simple by default, powerful when needed" is very true. Out of the box, you get a grandma-ready UX that's pretty intuitive to any Windows or Mac user, but once you start to dig in there's so many "power user" features. Now every time I'm on a different system I instantly miss all the little QoL that I never even think about, and almost everything is neatly packaged in the system settings or context menus, without having to install extensions or set up a dozen different components

Maybe has something to do with making assumptions about how the nand controller is going to allocate things across superpages but that is a stupid random guess and also I have no idea why it’s an OS issue but boy do they keep finding ways

Oh look a whole new reason to avoid windows 11.

Stability is why I use an atomic distro

Imo plasma settings/options can be a bit overwhelming, cinnamon can be underwhelming lol, as a former cydia user, I really like toggleable extensions with indidual settings that can be as complex/basic as they need to be.
My main issue with plasma is I cant stop tinkering with my theme/ui because the settings are so easily accesible. I get distracted easily. Gnome with a few curated extensions helps me focus, realized on accident using it because davinci resolve had issues on kde plasma using the global menu (didn't resolve after removing the menu)

Yeah I remember when Linux Update did this . . . oh wait, no I don't.

You use the wrong linux then.

Arch has always broke. Arch will always break.

Whatever doesn’t break makes us stronger (at using the Archwiki)

You guys still run Windows?!
You’d get more downvotes but their SSDs are all corrupted

windows quality has seemingly took a nosedive after 7 and never recovered. glad to have left.

Most people don't have this issue. You are only reading about the less than 1%. Per usual, everything posted her is overblown and the linux trolls feed on it.

No, they all have their issues. That is the very definition of linux.

Wait 3 weeks before applying updates and let other people be the guinea pigs. It's usually enough time for things like this to be caught and withdrawn by MS.

Because I haven't had these issues in 20+ years?

I usually restart my gentoo machines when I move or once every couple of years when I update them. Debian stable is pretty similar.
