> kernel regulary ships rather experiemental features in some of the releases

Does the Linux kernel ship with rather experimental features as default? When was the rule not to break user space revoked?


userspace doesn't get broken, you just kernel panic or experience severe slowdown due to some bug (like the one that existed on 6.18 and was fixed in 6.18.1 - not sure what the exact bug was, but updating to 6.18.1 made it go away.
