    • Install plymouth and plymouth-themes to get a graphical boot. Read the wiki here.
    • Add your user to the sudo group for sudo to work.
    • If you use the su command, you will need to use su - to get access to /sbin/ apps in your path.
    • fonts-ibm-plex in contrib will make your user interface look better, no matter which desktop environment or window manager you use.
    • The stable verbage with Debian applies to the version number of applications not changing between major releases, not the quality of the program you are running. Newly discovered security patches within applications are backported by an experienced team of volunteers, but the major version number of that app will likely stay the same. If you need a newer version of an application for new features, but want the rest of the system to stay on stable, it’s probably best to install a Flatpak.
