I see people is working very hard to turn Spyder, once the finest Python IDE hands down, into a piece of bloatware. It now takes an awful lot of time to start and load all its modules, kernels &c - it's exasperating (my computer has 40 GB of RAM, what seems to be insufficient for Spyder to feel happy). And, lately, it is not updating, too. A couple of minutes after Spyder decides to finally load all its stuff, a pop-up window pops up, announcing a new (5.5.1) Spyder version. I accept the update by hitting "Yes" and "Yes", but nothing happens. I might as well accept the update after closing Spyder, but once again nothing happens if I select this alternative.
When I press "Yes" twice (straightforward updating option), a 3rd pop-up window flashes very, very briefly. I cannot read whatever it is written in it, but it's obviously an error message.
