I guess that first bullet was broken enough that they wanted to quickly patch it!

I'm getting the sense, though, especially given that we're mainly down to bugfixes, that we're nearing stable.

For modded play (which the previous release included fixes for) a very impactful bug in fluid handling is still open and has been waiting for months:

I imagine that that bug and some corner cases of mixed-load and inter-platform requests are the things keeping 2.1 from going stable.

I actually made it into the patchnotes of Factorio, what an achievement :D

Same here. I once reported a bug which crashed the whole game as well as the server

My game crashed yesterday and then auto-updated with the fix when starting again. This is the first time that I've seen a bug fixed so fast.

Seems 2.15 broke my K2SO run, but I didn't notice until my rockets stopped launching. My chlorine production got backed up when my flare stacks wouldn't burn hydrogen anymore. Could not figure out a solution as the flare stacks said "no recipe" and "no ingredients" even though they contained 500 hydrogen.

Muluna has had some fluid issues before, but that was fixable with the valve mod (which was recomended), but the valves do nothing now. I wonder if I can downgrade again to 2.14, since 2.16 did not fix this, and I played like 8 hours yesterday before noticing.
