I mostly use arch, but need ubuntu for work and find bugs ridiculously
frustrating. I see a bunch of 'status -> won't fix' changes above,
without any real explanation ("We'll have another look" and "maybe
Debian fixed it."). This is so typical. I hunt down something relevant
and find out "it's been fixed in version xx.xx", which is, of course,
not the version I'm using or the version the bug is actually about.

I just turned off switchable graphics because more than one monitor was
ungodly confusing since they're on different cards. Using nvidia-375
only requires nomodeset, and after an update to 4.4.0-83 yesterday I
just got a screen freeze at boot. Like others, I figured out to turn off
quiet and splash, and whaddya know, everything is fine under the hood.
Still, it's annoying and alarming when you dist-upgrade and a previous
splash screen/cryptsetup screen stops appearing whatsoever!

What does LTS support until 2021 for 16.04 mean if bugs will just be
ignored/deferred?

Lastly, it would be awesome to have a short summary of the conclusion.
There's a massive number of comments here and I don't have the time
right now to figure out which of them contains truly relevant nuggets of
information.
