Ultimately it will all be anecdotal.

I've done plenty of upgrades without issues.

And I've tried Linux and found it abysmal with way too much of the sorts of issues you've mentioned.

So for me Linux is obviously a no go, but I could see why it would appeal perhaps to someone like yourself. Ultimately we are directed by our experiences.

Oh, for sure. But in any case, their QA isn't as robust as it seems. With only one such experience, it would be bad luck. Maybe even with two. But with multiple, across experiences with few common factors, it seems more like ineptitude; and what else have they missed?

Right, but I think what I'm trying to communicate is, if I'm going to run the risk that I'll have to deal with this nonsense either way, why not at least use an OS which has goals aligned with my own?
