More and more I'm favouring #Arch over #Debian
Debian's packages are way out of date. These two packages are from Debian Buster and yet they are both over a year old.
Example 1:https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/releases/tag/v1.0.0https://packages.debian.org/buster/syncthing
Example 2:https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/releases/tag/1.8.12https://packages.debian.org/buster/arduino
Seriously? at some point these packages get that old that things naturally start to break.
And yes I know their is snaps, flatpaks, ppas, appimages, etc. But this adds unnecessary complications and bloat.
@caltlgin if you're wanting updated Debian you should use testing or unstable. Those are kept reasonably current and testing, at least, is still pretty non-crashy.
