In my view, yes, it's getting better, but only slowly. There has not been a decisive "let's fix this issue" moment.
Recent releases have had longer cycles with more thorough testing. Julia's CI has expanded. Static analysis is improving. The linter is improving. That all adds together to a more stable Julia with fewer bugs.
However, there has been made little progress on actually improving Julia's tests, or documenting abstract types, or on formalizing interfaces, nor have there been a big dedicated "fix bugs" push.
So yes: It's getting better, but slowly and not yet by leaps and bounds.
