I have been using unstable on desktop for at least 15 years. Every time a new stable was released that would cause a month of just staying off updates till things stabilized. Recently it’s not even had that issue.
I’ve had to pin a package or two in that time, but unstable has been rock solid otherwise. I even run it on my server.
MS DOS v4.somthing. (1995)
Slackware that came on three 5.25" floppies. (1997)
First hard drive Linux: Debian.
Eventually red hat for several years, then back to Debian based (mint etc) around 2005. Been using Sid (Debian “unstable”) for a long time.
There are no Linux gatekeepers. There are assholes everywhere, that’s the human condition. I came across these assholes and I learnt that I should take advice and consider it myself.
If you close your brain and listen to random online people without thought, you’ll have a bad time, Linux or no Linux.
This stereotype of people in Linux or open source as assholes is FUD spread by people who have a vested interest in spreading it.
I’ve found people mostly very helpful and courteous.
Can I please have some evidence?
Or how Batman stole kryptonite from Lex Luthor in the storytelling masterpiece “Batman v Superman” by auteur director Zach Snyder.

Haha funny name, but let’s see how much traction it will get.
Everyone who thinks they are in the bottom right, is in the bottom left.
Every time the sun rises he lifts 1 boulder.
It was me. I go to the planetarium to escape this planet. I have enough of it the rest of my life.
So show me something else. Or I’ll boo.
Existing established open source projects? Basically never.
My own piles of shit with open source licenses? All the time.
I think the point you’re missing is modern cameras (especially smart phone cameras) already have AI and don’t “capture” what they see accurately.
In fact photographers going back into the earliest days of photography have been modifying photos with all the tools available to them.
Generative AI is just the latest tool in the toolbox and still requires skill and creativity to get good results.
This cartoon is stupid and the artist is a Nazi, but let’s not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Chungking Express.
Newpipe is not being rewritten and definitely not unmaintained: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/discussions/10118?tab=readme-ov-file#discussioncomment-8180701
Newpipe is not being rewritten. They have chosen to do progressive improvements instead:
Shit like this made me dump Mint more than a decade ago. I’ve been very happy with Debian (Sid).
The big issue is that by adding more and more features, a browser has become an operating system and so complex that you can’t hope to make a new one from scratch.
The last “new” browser engine (that wasn’t built by a corporation) was KHTML which was stolen harvested first by Apple for Webkit and subsequently by Google for Blink. KHTML then rotted without support.
The most recent attempt was to build Servo in Rust. Mozilla “ran out of money” (they depend on Google for their existence), and it’s already rotting.
Death has seen way worse, if my stint as a paramedic is anything to go by.
