      it really updates a lot. also it does it very sneaky. i think on windows it uses a background service running as admin. it’s rare it shows a tab that it updated. probably because they sneak stuff in like more tracking and pre downloaded google assets, so their pages load faster than the competition.

      for comparison firefox sometimes prompts for admin permission to update and very often displays the “we added more bloat you will never use” tab.
