I migrated from Arch to Debian.

It just works. It's stable, I don't need to worry about breaking updates and changes anymore. I'm at peace for at least 2 years.

And all the software I care about have their own deb repos or are self updating (Firefox, Chrome, VS Code, Cursor, Signal, Slack, etc), so I always have up-to-date versions. There is flatpak as well but I really didn't have any need for it for now.

It's the best combo, stable unchanging base and up-to-date apps.
