    Is this version naming scheme a thing now? The current year instead of 0.x or 1.1 and so on? First time seeing it and I can’t decide if I hate it or if it is neat.

      I love it. I don’t run across these OSes or distros every day, so when I see that my mom has version “23h2” of windows 11, I know it was last updated in the second half of 2023n so it must be recently patched. Likewise, if I run across an Ubuntu 23.10 install, it’s not any older than October 2023, but the 18.04 deployment is a few years old.
