Working on a project and a survey about GNU/Linux security. Survey results in post.

i have created a short questionnaire, regarding how GNU/Linux users secure their system. if you are somewhat knowledgeful on this topic and willing to share, i would appreciate if you would fill out my questionnaire

okay, so, my research is finished. here are the results:

The "other" distributions include: NixOS (8x), Gentoo (4x), Slackware (1x), Void Linux (1x) or a combination of multiple distributions

Wtf I'm the only one who waits months to update?
- if you don't mind me asking: why? in my experience, keeping the system up to date is usually effortless
  
  I don't wanna restart, and I don't really care enough
  I update when I think I have nothing else to do or when it's important enough (new Nvidia drivers, a remote execution patch, new gnome update)
  
  oh, i forgot gnome forces you to reboot after each update (plasma just installs the updates in the background after you ask it to)
  
  it's good practice to restart either way
- That's me, tbh it's annoying to install update if there are 5 or 10 packages to update.
  I just wait until it show much more update, so......usually i waited 3 month max
  
  Me and my 4000 packages waiting to update
  
  4000 packages update ???? nah....it's rookie number bro, just wait loooooong enough so when you updated your system will crashed or show tons of error message after reboot
  
  Never experienced this
