Honest question: wouldn't that make you more nervous you now arrived at an unknown/unsupported configuration?

Boring stability is the goal, but if Debian does not fit as is, then why not find a total package that is somewhat more cutting edge but does fit together? Especially given the fact that Debian does customization to upstream, so esoteric times esoteric.

It doesn't make me nervous because Debian has only let me down a couple of times over nearly 20 years and for example Ubuntu und RHEL and SLES have let me down dozens of times each.

Also I don't usually run "supported". I just run a system that fits my needs.

Thanks for following up. Yeah, I should rather have said "tested/vetted".
