> upgrades move faster in the OSS world There are many who don’t think like this. Microsoft has dedicated teams that ensure backwards compatibility for legacy applications, and even then people stay on XP. If you have an inherited Ubuntu system that has been happily running a proprietary binary for years, there’s even less guarantee (and certainly no marketing organization making that guarantee) that an upgrade won’t break things. And so you fall far behind LTS.
