So a new major version of Debian has been released, and now I see a lot of complaints about various issues stemming from an upgrade. I do not remember this many after an LTS Ubuntu version. I don’t want to rush to conclusions like “Ubuntu has money for better quality assurance”. I can easily come up with explanations for why these statistics can be skewed, like “Ubuntu-loving plebeians do not come to complain to elite Lemmy users about their puny problems”. I’m curious what you think?
What do you think of the observation that Linux@lemmy.ml had a surprising amount of reports of bungled upgrades?
My take: There was one user that kept making post after post after post as they tried to upgrade, which made it seem like there were more issues than there were
Scrolling through it right now, every support question from the last week appears to be from the same person
Wow, what a catch! I should really pay more attention to people… Okay, this person having a really terrible upgrade would perfectly explain what I’m seeing.
