>>107081086For some use cases, change can be bad. Like servers and autistic users.

>>107081086Just use flatpaks or distrobox if you really need to
you wouldnt get it.
>>107081086>debian 13 now has neolithic packageslet me guess, you need more?
>>107081086Use flatpaks if you need an newer version of something. Why does Debian filter plebs so hard?
>>107081086I have never once had a problem with "outdated" packages on stable.

>>107081686I did during the whole clusterfuck that was the transition from python 2 to 3. I've had a few scenarios where we had to install newer versions of java on production systems running debian. CentOS or RHEL would have been even worse in that case. Both of those were years ago. The main pain point for desktop use is not having the latest desktop environment versions, and missing out on a few features because of that, but you can generally find backports for that stuff.I'll take that minor inconvenience over corrupting my entire install because arch decided to eat itself for the third time this month. I also don't have to babysit debian's kernel version, so ZFS just works. Meanwhile on arch and fedora I was constantly fighting shit like that.
