Why it needs to be so painful to deploy a Rails app on Ubuntu in 2022?
Same with my experience. I could never get Capistrano to work. I blame the never updated documentation that also missing important details here and there so often. Reading the doc is like walking in the woods. In the end I switched to Mina, and finally everything works.

Updating modules to Puppet 8
The Puppet 8 compatibility guide detailed the major changes we had to be aware of and we found it invaluable the effort. It's probably worth bookmarking that page until you're done with the upgrade.

Faster module tests with Facter 4 and rspec-puppet
We started by decoupling Puppet from Facter as much as we could, introducing the possibility of having multiple Facter backends. While Puppet would use the default Facter implementation when running on its own, external users would be able to define and pass their own Facter implementation when initializing Puppet, similar to how puppetserver configures Puppet to use its JRuby-compliant HTTP client.
