    Distrohopping sounds exhausting. I don’t know why people bother.

    How people can just wake up one day and go, “Man, FUCK all my apps and settings, today I want to reinstall and reconfigure 70% of them and then find and learn alternatives to the 30% that aren’t transferrable, and completely disrupt my workflow for several weeks” is utterly beyond me.

    It’s like a miniature version of people who get tired of living in a place and just… move. For no reason. All that effort, selling your home, finding a new one, finding a new job, just because you’re… bored?? I am not knocking it, I just can’t relate at all.

    I started my Linux life in Ubuntu MATE, and then to Debian when I figured I no longer needed Ubuntu’s handholding and I was tired of dealing with MATE’s abysmal lack of community resources and documentation. Unless and until Debian either becomes antagonistic to me or their support for new software becomes severely crippling, I have no intentions to leave.

    It just works. Leave it be. This is my home.
