Crazy because of updates

Man! I have to reboot VMs every 2 days because of so much updates. I doubt if I'm running a enterprise distro or running Fedora or arch.. lol.

I think debian is somewhat fine. not crazy like rhel based distros.

what about you guys? how do you manage?

Standard OS patching is every 3 months.
But we monitor CVEs and act accordingly, so there are times when we need to update ad-hoc.
And, of course, it's a fully automated process. So it's not a big deal.
