I fucking hate how Windows makes you sit through it downloading and installing updates before you get to use it.
I know you can bypass it but you shouldn’t have to.
Debian and Ubuntu installers do the same thing, and have for quite some time. You can cancel when you see it start grabbing apt sources, or just be offline.
It doesn’t take forever tho. Because it just goes directly to the latest package versions.
Also I recall there being checkbox on whether to do it when starting the install if you’re online. No need to override the system into allowing you to do an offline install.
