On a fresh fedora silverblue 38 install ,
When I update my system using gnome-software on a non metered connection , it will verify 5 commits when running a ostree-fsck.
However if a terminal is used instead or if i update my system using gnome-software on a metered connection it will verify only 2 commits when running a ostree-fsck.
Is it necessary for me to update using gnome software only on a metered connection or is this expected behaviour?
Welcome to Fedora @dhanushshetty
Please check the Software app preferences. There you can see the note that mobile or metered connections do not automatically download.
So yes, there must be a difference between the two connection types.
In general, if you have a slow Internet I propose you to switch off Automatic Updates. So you can plan to update/download your system at night or when a better network performance is available.
