I've been using it since 14.04 and haven't noticed any exceptional change since then. I think they just update the kernel :D

Insight128y@Paramite Not really. Doing the commands you mentioned only syncs the packages with the latest patch of the major release.
For example, Let's say you have installed program A version 1.6. 1.6.1 comes out, which is a small patch to 1.6. But 1.7 comes out and is a bigger feature update.
In the name of stability, you would only get 1.6.1 until A. You build it from source B. You get it from a PPA or C. You upgrade Ubuntu versions, which updates the package lists to include the package for version 1.7. -
mundo0349798yWell, from 16. To 17. They changed the swap partition to a swap file.. that shit did not work for me.. my laptop freezes.
I went back to 16.04 and using budgie instead of unity.
But yeah, i agree.. no noticeable major changes except for nrw packages, compatibility with stuff and pretyness.
Ubuntu new release changelogs be like:
- New number
- New funky animal
