Mint urges users to upgrade |
 |
The Linux Mint team have published a blog post with some uncomfortable statistics about how many users of their distribution are not keeping up with security updates and are, often, running unsupported versions of Mint. "We can’t measure anything with precision because there’s nothing in your computer which sends data to us and we don’t configure Linux Mint in a way that even allows us to count how many users we have. In other words, there is nothing in Linux Mint that is common to all users and that we could rely on to establish statistics. That being said, we do have a few metrics we can measure. They give us stats which only tell one particular aspect of the story and they are unreliable and imprecise but do tell us something nonetheless. About 30% of users apply updates in less than a week." The post goes on to provide instructions for upgrading Mint safely using Timeshift and upgrade tools. |
