@janethemotherfucker @libreleah you realise, most debian users don't want "$better-thing", we're happy with the debian we use, and like it that way, because it does what we want, how we want, plus notions of all debian stable packages being 2+ years out of date is frankly silly, yes at times it has been that long between releases, but most packages are fairly up to date, and get regular security patches, and many debian users will make use of flatpak for apps they want the current version of

@janethemotherfucker @libreleah there's a reason that many debian users, such as myself choose to use it as their distro of choice, notably that it's reliable, and generally tends to be fairly stable despite lacking the latest features, but also that it's incredibly lightweight (my nas on debian rarely uses more than 1gb of ram) as well as being largely bullshit free as debian doesn't install large amounts of superflous packages and apps instead deffering to the user to choose their preferences

@janethemotherfucker @libreleah not really, stable if anything is more like running ubuntu LTS, but even then, deb stable suits many workflows exceptionally well simply because you don't get random package breakage

@janethemotherfucker @libreleah oh, i wish, i've hit it enough to know, all it takes is one careless push of a broken package and shit can break like heck, and while higher standards help, there is no bulletproof prevention
