Thanks! That’s very helpful for sorting out what each of those numbers signify. Your talk helped me to understand, how in the current version numbering system, for example “4.3.5”, the difference between the 3 and the 5 is very important. Very interesting to know that the 4 actually means very little, other than expressing some common wisdom: YOLO.
Yep, the last three YOLO releases were pretty massive though they just had more major changes than most major releases. From now on it'll represent passing an LTS.
YOLO 😂 hi wisecat, hopefully a quick question. The hardest part I have found is a point in the year to get any moodle update out the door. Our Uni runs three semesters a year leaving next to any room for any moodle love. In your presentation you mention never going from one Yolo release to another. We currently run 3.11.18 I think and the desired is to go to 4.2. This is because other unis have said 4.1 had so many bugs. Do you have any advice on that? Thanks for any advice and your content. 🪨’s 🤘🏽
Thanks for that comment, I didn't mention when to YOLO upgrade because largely they have been just another major release with a YOLO number change. Right now, the desired upgrade would be to 4.4. my recommendation is to always be as upgraded as possible. Rumours of "so many bugs" tend to be unfounded, and even if a bug exists, it's usually taken care of at the latest, by the following point release. So, upgrade to the latest possible version, and don't skimp on the point release updates. From my experience there has never been a good argument for holding back (i.e. only upgrading to 4.2 when 4.4 is available). All holding back does is give users an outdated experience. Nobody likes that... Good luck with your upgrades and thanks again for shining light on my omission. Cheers!
There are some, yes. I haven't seen many, but one that comes to mind is the premium (paid) version of Moove. I'm sure you could find others if you search around a bit.

Is there a theme with dark mode?
