I don't use Fedora too often, but I have a Fedora partition I try to keep up to date weekly or so, for testing stuff.
Going from 25 to 26, Wayland stopped working. I was able to use X just fine. It fixed itself after a number of updates. Going from 26 to 27 was uneventful.
First Slackware, something with kernel 2.0.30 in 1997. Still remember it. First I read all that looked interesting in/usr/doc, then I edited all/etc, seemed like best system ever. I used Slackware for many years, now I mainly use Gentoo. I still have a Slackware partition I keep up to date, mostly from nostalgia, I think.
I haven't used Ubuntu since Unity, and I don't think I will with GNOME 3. Anything else will do, I don't even hate systemd. Kde, xfce, MATE, lxde/lxqt, even fvwm, anything is better.

I used Macromedia Director extensively about 15 years ago. It had a scripting language called lingo, with a few unique features. It supported an old syntax, something like "set the visible of sprite 10 to true", and a new syntax, more like "sprite(10).visible = true". While most usual statements could be expressed in any way, some statements could only be expressed in the old syntax, and some other statements only in the new syntax. Worse even, there were a few corner cases where a statement written in the old syntax behaved slightly different from its new syntax counterpart. For example, the old syntax would return 0 while the new syntax would throw an error, I can't remember the exact details, but something like that, so you'd have to be very careful. It took me more than a year, maybe two, to find and work around many of these idiosyncrasies. It was, simply put, awful. It also had many bugs, some of them reported and not fixed for years.
I call bullshit. I've got a new puppy waking me up every night around 2 AM, then again around 6-7 AM, for almost 2 months, and I've never been so tired before. Ever.
That would be hard. There is no difference between FAT and vFAT. The driver uses some impossible file attributes to hide the long names between the short names on a normal FAT system; if you can't see the long name, it's simply a software limitation, not a different filesystem format. LFN worked even on FAT-12 floppies.

Romania switched from Cyrillic to Latin in 1862.

Google is bad, you want to step way from it. I can understand that. But to Microsoft?

It depends on what the app does. It may be essential for the service it provides. 2 examples I use frequently - SSH Server and XServer XSDL.

I wonder what's wrong with OpenSSH now... If M$ is starting to use something, I'm getting suspicious.
Are you sure you are not talking about prolog?
They expect it too, except when they don't.
I do not think that word means what you think it means.
I think you are right. This might make a big difference.

Slackware dumped GNOME years ago.
