Hello mates, As you know, in arch Linux the kernel is updated frequently but, is mandatory or good practice reboot any time the kernel is updated?

    I’ve had issues after updating the kernel and ignoring it. I WFH and all of a sudden my sound would stop working or something else may stop. I found it much easier just to reboot after.
