I use Kubuntu, and am currently on 14.04. I upgraded to .29 a couple of
months ago and only had a few small issues with metadata lookups that were
fairly easily solved. I would have upgraded to 16.04 but I saw this:

https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-16-04-3-lts-update-available/

I don't know if I'm the average  user, but I didn't feel like dealing with
it at the time and 14.04 is working fine for me. I have about 7 systems
that would need upgrading, 2 with tons of customizations way beyond myth
that I have running. I'll pass for now. Might try upgrading one of my low
priority frontend only systems over the holidays just to see how it goes.
