> idk if you've used a chromeos device, but they have an infuriating update schedule where it seems like there are updates daily

This has been the opposite of my experience on the stable channel. Perhaps you're on one of the more volatile ChromeOS update channels? Or you use your device infrequently and put it to sleep when not in use, resulting in a similar UX issue that plagues game consoles: the appearance of always having updates when used.

Yes. The beta channel for ChromeOS seems to have a new release every week. I usually ignore it until the Linux shell or Steam stops working, then relent and let it reboot.
