I personally dont care if its rust, python, C/C++ etc.... what I do are is that its breaking things on essential services. At work we tried and found a couple of install scripts stop working because of the sudo issue. And that got us off Ubuntu server and now on Debian server (containerized but still). Thank god for CI/CD or this would be an issue later on. I hope they get everything rock solid because you cant have core utils deviate all that much given how many services rely on them. Accuracy should be more important than speed.

    Why were you running non-LTS server versions?

    Very good question.

    We test nightly to make sure nothing breaks the app in CI. Its trivial and saves us future work. Some apps cannot go down no matter what (health related stuff) and we tend to deploy as soon as its stable.

    Its not my preference (I would rather just do LTS and stop) but im a small cog in the machine.
