The number of reported security vulnerabilities has gone up drastically. And so has the frequency, number, and volume of security patches. Which also makes the gap between fully supported distributions and ones with only partial security support larger. (Not every distribution provides full security upddates for the full announced life time of a release.)
How are you folks reacting to this?
It’ll be an annoying couple of years, and most bugs are nowhere near as serious as they are hyped up to be. Plan for more data breaches than usual though, not everyone is going to have sufficient layers of protection.
