I hear that a lot but, how bad is it really? Does it affect you (if you use Debian)? Aren’t there ways to install newer versions of most things that actually matter?

      I’ve found that arch is often an easier time than fedora if you want “up-to-date” Linux. Fedora has its heart in the right place, but its pathological adherence to open source makes it sometimes a very difficult time for certain classes of new things.

      But as I have opinions as to my lawn and your location relative to it, Debian is more often fine for my needs. It’s my daily driver on pretty much everything at work and at home, with the exception of a few arch and fedora systems in my home lab.
