Still better than what was done previously - publish a buggy "final" version which is unusable (at least not usable safely), then you wait some 6-12 months for v1.1, or SP1, or whatever the designation. And only then you can actually start using it in production.

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

People nowadays forget how shitty software used to be at launch.
Or so I’m told. I’m not actually of the generation that remembers software without an auto-updater.
Both are true, really. AAA software was usually better, because they couldn't assume that they could easily supply updates later. Also, software was generally not as complex, so the bugs weren't as easily introduced.
Bargainbin software was always horrible, but even worse when there weren't any large review aggregators about.
Whither the enterprise software and its 10 years of ABI guarantees? Oh, right: it was devalued long before it got boring.
This is amusing for me and propably most Arch linux users
