That barely covers how bad the situation can get.
As a (K)Ubuntu user I regularly run into:
- Outdated packages starting to cause issues when some other packages are
updated separately
- Packages getting updated into a known (at upstream) broken state, then being
left there for long
- Security issues even with CVE identifiers not being fixed for long (if ever
for a given release), especially for Flatpak which is likely seen as a Snap
competitor

After mainly KDE and Valve greatly speeding up how fast the Linux desktop
experience changes, and with Debian having a hard time keeping up with security
issues while Canonical often doesn't even try, a lot of LTS upsides are gone.
