Every hour was obviously hyperbole. It would break often. Normally due to some issue that would pop up, most often drivers.
She did run on unstable and had a fetch for updates automated every evening. Her goal wasn't a stable OS, but to be at the forefront of testing. She knew no programming, so it meant that she would report bugs and have a box with a giant fan that didn't run anything most of the time. She made bad choices.
I'm sure stable Debian is stable. I'm sure it's gotten better in the past 15 years, but the fact my experience with Debian was an unstable mess that was more of a job than a useable system makes me suspicious of the distro.
Reviews have gotten stupid.
Let's look at DISCO. Users put it at 37%. That's about as bad as "Cop Out," "Howard the duck", "the adventures of sharkboy and lavagirl" and something called "four kids and it."
I'm not a fan of DISCO, it takes itself too seriously, solves most problems with violence, has no chemistry between crew members and refuses to spend time developing most characters. That being said, it sure as heck is a lot better than "Howard the duck".

User reviews have become bombarded by conservatives pushing an agenda. An agenda that says that any representation is harmful and offensive. It's impossible to gain real insight on user experiences through online polls because of a loud minority crying about seeing a black/queer/Asian/trans/educated/disabled person.
It makes it hard to criticize shows due to the "anti-woke" offering you a robe when you say something bad about a show with a woman.
