I mean like why? Just open and update when I'm done that's what every other browser does. Stop making me wait to use the Internet firefox!

Would you prefer:

“Firefox Updater

This app is preventing shutdown”

You shut your PC down?

My laptop won't charge from USB-C if the battery fully dies, so I shut it down to prevent that.

I got a X570 board with the really loud fan.

Instead of sleep mode, I think they meant.

Huh what?

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

well what did they mean?

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

They meant - it seems unusual to shut the computer all the way down on a regular basis instead of just using sleep mode most of the time.

The better approach would be to prepare the update in the background and swap out the version on the next start

Isn't that what it does? That's how it works on macOS, and I get prompted to restart on Linux when I install updates in the background.
