After 1 year, 9 months, and 28 days of development, the Debian project is proud to present its new stable version 12 (code name “bookworm”).
“bookworm” will be supported for the next 5 years thanks to the combined work of the Debian Security team and the Debian Long Term Support team.
On my work laptop I have Mint. Seems to be much better than Lubuntu. Though I don’t use Cinnamon, I use dwm everywhere. Still like Mint way more than Ubuntu.
But on every other server apart from the LXC VM is Debian, and always has been. It’s rock solid, and blazingly fast. Minimal installs are always quick, come with almost everything I need, and you don’t need to learn anything new in switching between them.
The only issue is slightly older packages. Many have backports, but not all of them.
I’m inclined to try Debian “testing” first, but if it doesn’t feel right I might give Mint a go.
