        LMDE Cinnamon was my go-to for a long time. Such a pleasant environment, with so many options for customization and style.

      Debian is a good choice *if* you’re going to use Flatpaks. If not, it’s a bad idea IMO.

      Don’t think about today situation with the new version. Think about two years from now. Without Flatpaks, you’ll have a lot of software problems.

      But overall I agree, Debian is a good choice too.

          Probably he means that Debian stable is outdated by definition (e.g., Debian 12 it just released to stable, and has Gnome 43 instead of 44), and to stay on top of new versions you would eventually rely on flatpak.

          However this is a false problem, because if you want a updated version, you just change your update channel from ‘stable’ to ‘testing’ in the sources.list conf file etc voilà you have a rolling release with fresh stuff.
