...when before, they had the horrible radical-postmodern USA garbage messaging that you probably highly approved of and clapped for publicly!
Funny how that works, when you think a megacorp is on your side and assume they support your activism!

Will be very interesting to see who they fire.

Oh look, it is the token kraut again defending the abysmal decisions of over 20 years of german politics from his overly privileged 1% position!
⦠on a device that is not german, running software, standards and protocols that are not german, on a global network that is not german, posting on a non-german website, in a language other than german. And you probably dont even drive a german car, either. The only thing germany had, and even that is dwindling into obscurity.

Now tell us how germany is STRONK and important in the world!!!

My understanding of LTS is literally that I will absolutely get critical security patches for a long(er) time.
I do not care about new features or fancy hardware support in LTS but gladly accept whatever trickles down, but the absolute main point for me is rock solid, reliable security patches in an acceptable timely manner. Everything else is secondary.

I am surprised at the many negative comments about the recently found CVEs, about Ubuntu patching LTS and the many other complaints and whining.

Finding these bugs and patching them is a massive security win for Linux and F/OSS operating systems using Linux, and it is awesome to see how many people are working together to deliver these gains to everyone - FOR FREE!
Backporting patches into LTS is pretty thankless but absolutely necessary.
How about a bit more enthusiasm and thankfulness? You are getting an entire OS for free and get to keep (most of) your privacy. When was the last time you helped backport, or donated?
