No need to be negative. Generally speaking, there are hundreds of

fixed via updates every release.
Funny thing, though, I keep reporting crashes but I almost never get any
feedback except for a bot reporting that they're closing the bug at the
version's EOL, six months to a year later. Almost none of them even get
assigned to anybody.
Yesterday, for the first time in too long, I tried to do a backup with
Back In Time and had it fail in a way that looked like a program bug. I
reported it to the sourceforge bugzilla. Within an hour, I'd gotten a
request for more info, and in the process of getting that, found out
what had happened. (The last time I'd used it was back in December,
when my user ID was 500; now, it's 1000, so I didn't own the folders any
longer. Oops!) I replied back, giving the solution and changed it from
a bug to a question, and now we're discussing problems with configuring
the program without editing the config file or knowing how to start it
from a terminal, with a specific switch. (There's no Help option any
more, among other things.)
When was the last time you got a reply from anybody that fast on the
Fedora Bugzilla?
