I have a question. Have you modified registries in Windows? If so, you've done harder stuff than Linux will ask of you already. You just don't think about it anymore.
Once Linux is set up (which is trivial now), it's easier to manage than Windows. How often do you have something to do, launch the app, the app sends you to a website for an update, then you have to navigate there and download it, run it, and restart? On Linux, as long as you tell your package manager to update occasionally, all your applications will be kept up to date. Applications don't have to manage updates themselves and you just need to hit a few buttons or type one command and you're updated.
