How can I see how much network data my Linux Mint updates use throughout a month?
I made this post asking this same question, and got some direction, but I don't know enough about bash commands to follow the responded advice. I would appreciate any help.
The whole point is to see how much data Linux Mint uses to update and compare it to Windows. It's for someone that has an internet data cap and is looking for an OS that is more efficient with data usage. I'm almost sure that LM is more efficient, but would like to back it up with actual numbers.
In case it matters, I update Linux Mint via the terminal using the following command:
sudo apt-get update | lolcat && sudo apt-get full-upgrade -y | lolcat && sudo flatpak update -y | lolcat && sudo update-pciids | lolcat && sudo apt-get autoremove -y | lolcat && sudo apt-get autoclean | lolcat
