Hi Big Al,
Since I am a big Fedora guy and it upgrades versions every year,
I am use to it. Mostly the updates are already there under
to older version so no big surprises.
Fedora 29 is rock solid, but Xfce went from 4.12 to 4.12, and
4.13 is a dog -- odd number releases are Xfce's experimental
versions and Xfce freely admits it is a dog. I have seven or
so bug reports on 4.13. Mate is really solid thought and
very similar.
Fedora is a shining example of Kaisen (constant improvement).
They have a wonderful handle on it. I actually look forward to
their updates for all the bug fixes and new features. (Not
so with Windows, as I have to hold my breath and hope it works
afterwards.)
I still run new releases under a VM as you do. I typically have
a identical version Fedora in a VM as my host, so I can practice
various network things back and forth.
