I mean, I'm on Debian and I'm on the same install instance I've had for almost four years now. I'm constantly reading about how some of you people keep hosing your other distros with a normal update...

Four years? Some rookie numbers you got there.

Maybe they mean four year uptime...

Some of us were riding Windows 7 into the ground, specifically when Steam stopped supporting it.
- Recent Ubuntu convert, even more recent Debian convert

Real. Though sometimes running a recent version of something is a real challenge, unless it ships in appimage. If it’s a small program you can usually backport the package from unstable or just build it yourself, but if it depends on some rust or js libraries or whathaveyou you have to do so much crap you might as well just be running trixie

Couldn't Distrobox get you through that?

Sure, but honestly I hate the idea of having different runtimes. That’s the reason why I like neither snaps nor flatpaks.

Lol, I ran 5 years on arch without a break.
Now 6 months of Bazzite without a break.
I think the age of distros shipping severely broken updated is over. And it was always, ALWAYS grub that broke after an update on mint and opensuse 10 years ago for me.

I'm hitting 4 on a rolling release
