  It’s hard to go back to Debian after you’ve tasted that sweet sweet rolling release

    I just went back to Debian because Arch kept fucking up my graphics drivers. I have actual work to do, I can’t sit around tinkering on my box all day.

      There’s definitely something to be said for stability. I use stable releases for all my server boxes.

      Arch is fine for a gaming desktop or a desktop you don’t do actual, you know, work on.

      But for work or servers you need stability.

      Nvidia is breaking their graphics driver. Rolling release distros just get fucked by it

    And my experience, the only thing that rolling release does is change where/what the bugs are every few months instead of every few years.

      On the other hand, my package manager is called pacman and it looks like Pac-Man

    Debian testing is usually good enough. Packages have to be in unstable for ~10 days with no major bugs to migrate to testing.

    Of course, you can run unstable if you really want to live on the edge.

    I went from Arch to Debian

    And then you switch your debian to testing or sid and realize how good you had it before hopping distro.

      Nah, I like pacman more than apt

  Being “up to date” is a lie big Debian tells people to make them feel comfortable about being behind on patches. Wake up people!

  I genuinely don’t know if I am weird or just lucky but even my server runs Arch and its (mostly) more up to date packages have made things easier than any Debian based distro I ever tried.
