Somewhere laying on top of the ceiling in the bathroom I have a Linux Cubox with Roon endpoint installed that has not been rebooted in more then 4 years… Just sayin’…
[Edited] I do admit that well established designs and technologies are less likely to have glitches. Routers, hubs, wi-fi device, as well as music servers have been around for a while. Newer ones are far more robust.
That said I bought an RX350 in 2017, and contrary to what all happy owners say, I think it is my worst vehicle since 1980. So, one could have the only glitchy unit and make a judgement based on their own experience.
I used to work for Toyota in Japan and always bought their cars. My last experience with a 1 year old Lexus changed all that. Unfortunately, the cars are no longer engineered the way they were in the 1990s. Toyota today is all about profit maximization!
After I experienced a major safety flaw in my Lexus, and when Toyota HQ could care less and treated me worse than I have ever been treated, I stopped buying their cars.
I’ve been absolutely thrilled with Mercedes reliabilty, engineering, design, and quality since!
I’ve really noticed a decline in options. Wood to plastic, leather to pleather…
My 2019 Lexus RX is an entry level model, and I bought it with limited options. I didn’t even get Navigation on this one since the phone works as a great GPS.
Sold my 2009 RX last month, and still have the 2012 RX.
