| Quite true. But such things do exist, you just have to vet things first. For example, stick to a non-rolling distro, such as debia n stable. Everything there will have around 3 years support, with all the security updates done for you. Debian backports almost all security patches, or sticks with an LTS variant of something (like php) for its lifetime. No surprise API changes, no sudden need for code changes. So many people use the latest shiny, and literally only because they're told to. Many need nothing from that bleeding edge version. When it comes to frameworks, some have LTS versions, stick with those. And things like node? Heh. |
