Best part is the second part, where they stop upgrading to 2019 cause it destroys their SSDs: https://www.tarynpivots.com/post/how-stack-overflow-upgraded-from

  I'm Taryn's coworker I was involved in that part of the process very closely. That statement is not entirely accurate. The SSDs certainly did die, but not _because_ of the 2019 upgrade, it just happened at the same time as the 2019 upgrades. The major 2019 SSD issue was however that Intel and Dell kept passing the buck on who was to blame for not having 2019 drivers for the NVMe SSDs. Eventually I ended up having to bully Intel into giving us the drivers. We decided that "bullying Intel" was not an appropriate future tactic for getting the next version of the drivers, so that's another factor for staying on 2016 (which has drivers we've tested for years)
