Haha, I feel that switch to LTS only releases. I was upgrading to every release in the beginning as well but it started to get old real fast. I run Mint nowdays. In the early days I loved testing new distros and tweaking around with my system, but after over a decade working in tech the last thing I want to do in my free time is have to fix my own computer.
Hell yeah! I was using Ubuntu 10-14 in college and now back on the train with 24, 25 and 26. Everything just works every time and all the professional apps I need are first class citizens and well supported.
Ubuntu Server, FreeBSD and OpenBSD are my server distros of choice as well. FreeBSD for a NAS. Gotta pick the right tools for the job!
Ubuntu 7.04 -> 7.10 -> 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04 -> 9.10 -> 10.04 -> 12.04 -> 14.04 -> 16.04 -> 18.04 -> 20.04 -> 22.04 -> 24.04 -> Fedora J/K Ubuntu 26.04
I like how sh.itjust.works
