The changes in each major version are pretty small. They’re sticking to semantic versioning now so if there is a major version bump, it’s likely a small change to some internal library that would only be breaking in the technical sense.
Plus, this is the pace the framework has adopted for a long time now so most of the devs in the ecosystem are used to doing an upgrade once or twice a year. Generally they’re very quick. < 15 min.
- wishinghand 7y ago> They’re sticking to semantic versioning now I will believe that when I see it. edit: to clarify, historically they've bumped the minor version number whenever they had major changes in the API, and now the major version bumps are usually non-breaking changes. I don't think the team fully understands Semver.
