25 days until I've been on Debian for two years.

@jlw_the_jobber @wyatt

I have no clue, my previous record was one year. Anyone have any ideas?

@rl_dane maybe?

@amin @jlw_the_jobber @wyatt

Well, it's something like:

• you install Debian when it's had a recent release (like now)
• you install all the packages you need
• for packages you need to have more-up-to-date, you install flatpaks
• you gather the few packages that you need to compile, and compile them,

and then, you just... enjoy the stability. XD

Personal preference, of course.

Would I prefer native .debs for everything under the sun? Yes, if Debian went to a yearly release. 😁

@mirabilos @jlw_the_jobber @wyatt @amin

and/or still your thirst for too-new things

I honestly don't like the constant software treadmill.

Unfortunately, things like KDE Plasma are currently improving and evolving at a fairly rapid pace, and a semi-annual release cycle is kind of long in the tooth to enjoy the improvements.

But yeah, good point, still. ;)

@rl_dane @mirabilos @jlw_the_jobber @wyatt

SwayWM seems stable enough at this point that I rarely actually notice changes in its updates anymore. So Debian works fine.

@rl_dane @mirabilos @jlw_the_jobber @wyatt

I really do want to give another shot at getting X-based WMs working with my display; if for no other reason, my lock screen setup was the most awesome thing I've ever done on Linux and it's just completely impossible to recreate with swaylock.

I vote Qtile for your window manager. I just love it.
