Is we 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?

If you’re a software developer or an enthusiast, you’ll notice it immediately. You’ll be reading and hearing about the new release of the BestThingEver 3.14, you’re totally hyped up about it. You rush to install BTE to experience how awesome it is only to find out that the Debian repos still have a BTE 2.0.5 and none of the cool new features everyone has been talking about for the last 6 months.
Oh, that didn’t sound familiar? If you can’t tell the difference between two versions of a particular application, Debian will be perfectly fine for you.
Hobbiest Dev, I run Debian as my daily. Flatpak and distrobox take care of everything for me.
