I guess I'm trying to sort out who we'd be helping most and who we'd be harming least with each of these ideas.
Is there a CentOS user community of folks who apply nightly updates but don't respond to errors during that process?
yes, there is. I know of installations ( not mine :) ) which have a "yum -y update " run from cron.daily
I guess it is a workflow issue, but most of my hosts apply updates nightly and when they fail to apply I (or another team member) look into why.
To my mind this is compounded by AppStream/Modularity where some of your streams may make some of your updates fail in new/interesting ways.
I guess I'm wondering how far off the Best Practices we want to support in Jan 2022...
"Set it and forget it" nodes that aren't "managed" by anyone are always a problem. But are those folks likely to blame us for issues vs folks with managed systems who are "reading" the error reports from dnf- automatic (etc) and aren't aware of Stream8?
I guess I'm not sure upgrading folks to Stream8 is in the 'predictable' end of life workflow.
