That is why one should not be interested to much risk of lacking future support. What if your wife gets pregnant and there is no update/release for 9 months? ;) Obviously I admire such open source efforts. It is just such a pity to see so many projects initiated seemingly without first trying to bundle forces. This is especially visible in crm all these individual projects are 'shitty', I do not get why none of them try and work together to create a few good ones. I used to always state that there is only one real distribution you could use, and that is the centos one. Basically because you could always buy a redhat license and get the support of a billion dollar company (now even IBM), but with their stream direction this all becomes questionable. However most projects do not even have an argument other than 'this is the distribution I know'. The only long term alternative I see, is using containers that hardly have any os dependency and behave more like micro services. So you focus on the direct updates of suppliers.
