debian is garbage

you have like 4 level of newest packages

archlinux is rock soldi because it has ALL the latest debugged code!! stable latest!! in binary form!!
also art of linux an arch derivative has s3 init which is apparently better than systemD

debian is a poor choice for production

ponderous old atuan turtle  vs latest super space ship  MORE STABLE than DEBIAN

guix and nixos also lag and dont have latest stable kernel

you have no idea how wrong you are

freebsd has ZFS on root and is ALMOST as up to date
uses klang if you like that
and easier than arch to install

the ranking of operating system in the world now:
rmox or plan9 (rmox needs to go 64 bit and plan9 you need to really learn to program) 
art of linux aka artix
archlinux
freebsd dragonflybsd netbsd maybe guix
openbsd  replace all your routers
maybe nixos

werc.cat-v.org
happstack.com
aidaweb.si


deadrat and ur bung 2 and dweebian avoid at all costs
slack is poo
nixos packages are not up to date
