I don't think anything should intrude your software development just because the program is old.
The issue is features. Take for example, I use KDE with KDE Connect because I like its integration with my phone, a new feature recently got released on KDE Connect but Debian probably won't have it in the repositories until the next Debian 10 release.
That's not including independant features in KDE that Debian users won't get, and probably won't have in the future because the version it will bring with it will most likely be old by the time Debian 10 releases.
Though one time I remember someone complaining that an SQL package was causing issues with someone's project. No idea.

This is a fair complaint. If features/customization are important and not offered on some stable release I understand. I feel like the stable and bleeding edge people are interested in such different things that they shouldn't argue about which is better

My man This new slider plugin is gonna be a fucking godsend for college.
Mason Gray
Absolutely agree.
Just use what works best for you.

Install Devuan. Debian but without systemd.
Easton Morris
Try OpenSUSE. It has a rolling release like Arch but is maintained by professionals and has system snapshots which is incredible for rolling distros.
But then I wouldn't have systemd.

> Debian but without systemd Just remove systemd later, is that too hard for you?
Connor Cook
No, thank you, I don't want to fix more shit that broke because systemd folks don't understand that breaking non-default configurations is wrong.
