From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Go away. You're here pretending that Ubuntu only does security updates. You have never received a bugfix from Ubuntu? And I am the one who doesn't know what he's talking about?
Why do you insert yourself into conversations with other people? I am the one who's rude?
🙄 read my comment in the context of what I was replying to, which is what the original posted was referring to in that maintenance updates ONLY. I clarified it pretty well, and that means no point releases, which is what that poster was referring to.
Yeah no the other poster is correct, I meant Ubuntu doesn't do feature updates after release. You seem worried about something that's quite unlikely to happen (breakage introduced from minimal patches), while delaying security fixes. And I assume the vast majority of updates are security fixes.
And I also think you're being rude in this whole thread.
Sure, bugfix and security.
I'm sorry but I got a lot of very dumb answers like "have a staging environment" and "use a schedule", even though I listed both this points in my (very short) post already. The most detailed answer I got is a playbook copy/pasted from an LLM, and this one dude was getting into all subthreads to tell me I don't understand what I'm asking until I blocked him. So you don't have to worry about me, this was probably my first and last thread on Lemmy ;-) Either way, apologies if I got heated up.
