       I've been a customer of @OpenBSDAms for a few years now. Every now and then I used to get an email that they upgraded the #OpenBSD version, but I never got around to upgrading my VM.With the latest upgrade they upgraded to OpenBSD 7.7, but my VM was on 7.0.Being several years behind made me anxious. I started wondering if I needed to provision a new VM, and move all my stuff to it.But, then I felt I could try upgrading. Took a backup of all my files.I was able to upgrade from.7.0 -> 7.1 (reboot)7.1 -> 7.2 (reboot)7.2 -> 7.3 (reboot)7.3 -> 7.4 (reboot)7.4 -> 7.5 (reboot)7.5 -> 7.6 (reboot)7.6 -> 7.7 (reboot)Now, I am on the latest version. If this seamless 7-upgrade is not an absolute master class in software engineering, I don't know what is. OpenBSD developers, take a bow! 🙇🏽‍♂️
