There was a problem hiding this comment.
To me "that" implies the stopping of processes results in the loss of work, but really the restart is what does it. "And" might be a bit better, although "and" could also be interpreted this way so idk.
But this does match the wording used in coder/coder more: "Updating will restart your workspace which stops any running processes and may result in the loss of unsaved work."
Use 'which stops' instead of 'and stop' to clarify that the restart causes the process stopping and potential data loss. Co-authored-by: kylecarbs <7122116+kylecarbs@users.noreply.github.com>
