"Colonel updates require a reboot, but just normal application updates do not. And most system updates do not. I partly misspoke about Android. I should have been more clear because I was referring to the A/B partition scheme, but yeah, to run the new system does require rebooting.

Linux only needs a reboot if you want to update the kernel, normally.
Eh, it depends. Other low-level things (systemd, glibc, etc) need a reboot too.
Technically, but it’s safer to reboot nonetheless: https://fedoramagazine.org/offline-updates-and-fedora-35/

Colonel Kernel
