To be honest, I’ve never considered enterprise Linux distros for desktop, although now that you mention it, it doesn’t kinda falls on the same stable category as Debian… I’ll need to check it out

You want frequent updates for security reasons. Many security fixes never actually get backported.

Why not switch to Silverblue instead? It's still Fedora, but updates download automatically in the background and you simply restart whenever to begin using the latest image.

@thezipcreator you can try messing with debian backports, that sometimes has newer packages.

With the release of Debian 13 which includes KDE 6.3 I find myself tempted to switch away from Fedora. Nothing against it but I think I might be getting too old for weekly updates! With flatpak I have as recent software as I want and for CLIs and libs, well, I don’t need everything latest… There’s still some FOMO but then again almost everything out there comes in a .deb to begin with! Has anyone here made the transition to the slow lane?
