Probably first production run of the M4 is limited in numbers and fit the initial targets of the iPad Pro.

This looks like a fallacy in the argument. Ubuntu is generally known as being very stable as well, they tend to avoid breaking changes over the lifetime of a release and there are LTS releases to boot.

I didn't downvote but for a lot of the time the core devs were mostly 1-2 ppl working some evenings because they have dayjobs/lives. They released many updates to 2.10, and they're often feature releases not just bugfix releases. At the same time they almost completely rewrote the backend to use a new graphics library GEGL, which they also wrote from scratch. As for GIMP 3 they have also redone a lot under the hood to allow for easier development of new features moving forward and custom old GTK widgets updating to GTK3 required rearchitecturing as they work fundamentally differently from modern GTK3/4 versions.
So that's why I don't joke, there's also nothing to forgive. Let's hope that GIMP 3 will get more interest from devs with its more modern and capable architecture.
Here is the rationale for the Journal. In short it is really not that simple and it has a lot of advantages over simple text files and it saves disk space.
Many of us have. I enjoy KDE but COSMIC looks very slick and when listening to the developers it sounds like it's really thought through. They have considered so many details. For selfish reasons I'm glad to see it's already being worked on for openSuse.
Ah well, I've used Virtualbox, Vmware and KVM and I found them all useful for my purposes. Vmware is very slick and has an edge on easy Gfx acceleration for Windows guests but since they're now owned by Broadcom that might become a problem.
I'm happy with Virtualbox on my desktop and KVM on a few servers. I don't really care to take sides.

What? Is there some new controversy going on ?
Yeah screwing with the network interface of the machine you're SSHd into is something nearly every sysadmin have done at least once.
That or changing something, rebooting the server and subsequently being unable to contact it again due to said change. I'm always scared and feeling I'm taking a risk when upgrading a major OS version over SSH, yet Ubuntu never failed me in that, it's the silly things that got me, like messing with fstab.
I find it bloated if the system have things I don't need are noticeably using up RAM and CPU. I couldn't care less about extra unused packages on disk, they're dormant. I don't care about a few daemons or resident apps I don't use either if they're idle all the time and use minimal RAM. Bloat for me is something that noticeably affects my running system.

Meh I can get a Win11 guest that interacts well and conveniently with the host and its peripherals and if all I'm doing is running tax software, office365 or compile my Rust app to test it cross platform - vbox is perfectly fine. I'm not running anything demanding.
I'm not taking a stance against KVM it's great, but rather saying that for some of us it's not that big of an issue which solution to use, it just needs to be convenient.
It's always a good idea to be aware of .pacnew/.pacsave files. If you ignore them everything might still work but you might end up using old configs. This might not break anything but could have security or performance implications. A system can slowly "rot" this way while still appearing to be fine.
