Firefox gets updated at the same time for all operating systems. Maybe Firefox for Windows doesn’t check for updates as often.

Firefox is released for all operating systems at the same time. I suspect that it just feels like there are more because in Windows automatic updates are relatively uninvolved. Also, a lot of people tend to install-and-forget.

In Manjaro, things are a lot more involved, you’ve got a lot more power and control of your system. So you get reminded of things more often, so you are more aware of what’s going on and it might feel like there are more.
