Debian users waiting 4 years for an update:
Debian: you guys are getting updates?
Android-x86: you guys are still getting support?
Symbian: you guys still exist?
Me running debian-testing

I don’t need to wait. Debian works great with unattended upgrades and I don’t have to care. Debian will literally run for years without anyone logining for maintenance. It just goes.
I was just joking
I know but I am just impressed with Debian
I’ve used Debian before, I personally see it as the greatest Linux distro (Arch is just better for my use case)
Gentoo users waiting 12 hours for the update to finish (Firefox is updating)

What? 6 fck’n hours? That’s so outdated I’d call it LTS!
Fedora users waiting 6 hours just for the update process
Ubuntu’s updates keep up with Debian’s snail-like stable version. In over 10 years using Ubuntu-based distros, I’ve seen very few app updates … even between major updates.
Debian’s unstable may have more updates, I’d guess. (I might actually try Debian 12 soon.)
And there’s always the PPA route. I’m usually busy using current app versions, and so don’t often understand that ‘bleeding-edge’ approach (esp. with all the memory and cores we’ve got.)
Gotta admit that Arch is what keeps the Arch Wiki a super resource!
I’m flagging that AUR package and you can’t stop me.
Ubuntu beta testers wait for 6 months. The rest of us wait for 2 years.
Beta testers, thank you for your service!
I came home and ran
sudo pacman -Syu. My system was already up to date.I haven’t even updated to the current LTS yet.
Me either everything is working just how I like it and I’ll just leave it at that
Yep, don’t have the headspace right now to deal with any issues that pop up, and TBH Canonical’s flavor of corporate-ness kind of takes the excitement out of getting updates, too.
6 hours? I get disappointed when I don’t see another update within 6 minutes
