Your first image still not loading.
Found this, doesn't look like it holds water, or over generalization:
I dunno, the few .40's I've shot worked ok too. I just thought this stick figure drawing was kinda funny. I'm suspecting in the mind of the person drawing it, there's some reliability issues, at least more so than the other calibers.
Hopefully someone will chime in with some data/opinion.

The use of lead bullets in factory barrels (don't do this) and unsupported chambers in the early Glock .40 S&W guns contributed to the kaboom story. These issues have been addressed through a barrel redesign for the chamber support issue and a warning not to fire lead bullets through Glock factory barrels. Reloads also have played a role in some instances but the technical talk on that subject is over my head as I don't reload so I found some discussion elsewhere to better understand it.The drawing depicts that glock 40cal pistols like to kaboom more than other guns. Some think it was due to lesser supported chambers. I have no opinion. My glock 27 has a ton of rounds through it and it works just fine. I've put many thousands of rounds through other 40 caliber pistols without a problem. I think if there was a problem it was in the past.

Kinda funny? I got a really good belly laugh out of that drawing....still laughing. The guy is even giving the finger in the .45 drawing, missed that the first time.
Most Glock kabooms AFAIK have involved reloaded ammo.
Factory ammo might get the famous Glock smilie but I have never experienced a problem. I have a G29SF and a G20SF.
I shoot Underwood full power loads in 10mm. Not 40 but the 40's parent cartridge.BTW.
ETA-The Glock warranty is voided if you shoot reloaded ammo. POI.
And MM's stick figures in addition to bringing a grin, are an excellent summary of the viewpoints of 10-15yrs of ongoing debates .
Of course the omitted wild card is .357 Sig ( or .357 mag for us dinosaurs ). Or MM is actually three steps ahead of me, and deliberately left them out as commentary on their moderate peak usage, and he is predicting further declines in popularity. ( I'm predicting holding at least current level, possible small gains, but that's why there's horse races.)
It's not an article. It is a single post on another gun forum. Not easy to link to hence the copy and paste.Good god dude. If that's an article, post a link to it and not the entire thing.
"Famous Glock smile"? First heard for me. Meaning:
Unsupported chamber and pressure issue.
