I mean software devs release software when it is ready. Fedora also is semi-rolling and especially the older release has some form of held back packages.
But knowing "my distro ships packages with some random frozen number and these issues will simply not be fixed in a long time" is not really helpful.
Also, people dont know this from anywhere. Android, macOS, Windows all have separated software that is officially maintained and uses the latest stable version. Only Linux distros use this strange packaging form.
So I think using Flatpaks is way better, as they are often officially maintained. A lot of them are not, but they manage the separation from the system very well, so you actually run the latest versions without any chance to break the system.
