    Expects user to solve many issues manually, and as such requires some Linux experience.

    Also, showing newbies the latest and greatest makes for a better presentation, and Linux develops so fast the 2-year cycle makes grand shifts.

      Getting downvoted for asking why is funny. I think your Debian Stable experience is a decade old or something. I don’t need to fix anything manually on a fresh install and can game just fine.

        You’re quick to assume it’s my downvote. It’s not, I barely touch this button and find it counter-productive. It often makes sense to disregard it in a conversation.

        I didn’t install Debian 13, but I did work extensively with Debian 12 on several machines, and issues did arise: broken wallpaper, borked battery indicator and non-operational app store to name a few.

          I actually did not, I just included it in the reply that I think it’s funny.

          I think I stopped getting issues at around Debian 10. Funny enough I now experience issues on different Ubuntu installs so I stop recommending it to newcomer.

            I see!

            For now, my least problematic picks were Fedora and OpenSUSE, most problematic - Debian, Mint and to some extent Arch. I do recognize it’s anecdotal, though.
