Debian is honestly goated. Like I love me a nice boring stable distro that just keeps on chugging. I have done such crazy stuff to Debian and it just refuses to care. It’s like a nokia phone that got run over by a car and still works.
It’s the same for me for my Fedora install on my laptop, I installed version 38 when I got my laptop and now it’s on version 44, next week I’ll upgrade it to 45. It’s been rock solid, never had any issues with it.
Debian is basically exactly what I want out of a daily driver. Everything is exactly where I expect it to be every time I go to use it, nothing ever breaks because of a regular update, and it’s not like I can’t just go get the flatpack if I absolutely need the most recent features on an app.

Jumped on the Fedora ship with 36.
Updating to 43 or 44 broke my install so seized the occasion to try Silverblue instead of Workstation.
It’s even better although the immutable side has its limitation, so I’m happy to have another computer for these.
Fedora is based on debian?

Debian is also perfectly capable of running more bleeding edge stuff if you really wanna do it. I built niri from source on it. Works great.
