This article is quite interesting and I'm interested about the idea of #immutable #Linux, at least for end users. I found nothing official on the #debian wiki.
On Debian, I don't remember having often experienced myself upgrade problems, with more than 25 years using it. Not on stable at least. (because ofc I run #testing :)
I don't know much about Fedora but I had the idea that it was not *that* stable because of its bleeding-edge nature.

Microsoft blockiert Linux:
Keiner redet darüber!
#Microsoft entscheidet, ob #Linux auf deinem #PC/ #Laptop überhaupt starten darf:
Jahrelang wenig beachtet hat sich der Konzern mit
#SecureBoot über den #UEFI-Standard die Kontrolle über dein System erschlichen.
Mit weitreichenden Folgen, die bereits spürbar sind: Linux-#Distributionen müssen bei Microsoft um #Signierung bitten, damit sie starten dürfen - bei jeder Aktualisierung.
#Fedora beispielsweise durfte zig Monate nur eingeschränkt starten, weil Microsoft seine umfangreichen Anforderungen nicht erfüllt sah.
Leidtragende sind die Nutzer, welche freie #Software als schlechter wahrnehmen, weil der Konzern sie schädigt. Während das proprietäre Windows problemlos startet - zumindest, wenn es nicht durch #MS selbst mit mangelhaften Updates zerstört wurde...

Tinkering with some #VR gaming and was able to get it working with my #Debian mini PC by just pulling an updated version of mesa from the stable backports repo. But, it didn't work on #ChimeraOS, which hasn't seen an update since last June. So I've converted the new #gaming PC to #Bazzite and streaming VR games wirelessly to my Meta Quest 2 headset with the Steam Link app seems to work fine. It's a little flaky at times, but seems to work best in desktop mode.

35 Debian LTS advisories were released in February fixing 527 CVEs across various packages. These include security fixes for gnutls28, xrdp, ClamAV, tomcat9, zabbix, linux kernel, ceph, glib2.0, MUNGE and many more.
Debian LTS contributors also prepared updates for more recent releases, Debian 12 (#bookworm) , Debian 13 (#trixie) and Debian unstable. In addition, improvements were made to documentation and tooling used by the team.

On to trying #FreedomBox. It says it can be installed on Debian. Is that the base terminal, or can I have the gnome GUI?
boostedOver the past few days and weeks, I’ve decided to downsize my digital and tech collection. I own so many computers, laptops, smartphones, smartwatches, accessories, and so on—I can never really use it all. I bought a lot of it just to own the latest “hot stuff.”
That’s why I’ve gotten rid of most of it—either giving it away or selling it for very little. And I’ve kept only the bare essentials. Often not even the newest or best.
For example: I now only use my Peladn Mini-PC with an old Ryzen 5 5500U as my computer; I don’t even use the newer, faster ones to their full potential, so I gave them away. I’ve now reinstalled Debian Stable on it, with an absolute minimum of programs—just the bare essentials: browser, LibreOffice, Tuta, Signal, VLC, Nextcloud, Localsend, Rustdesk.
I’ve moved away from Fedora because: Fedora = Red Hat = IBM = US Big Tech = US MAGA fascists.
I’m also saying goodbye to Proton and will only use Tuta and Posteo from now on.
All my new smartphones like the S25 Ultra, Pixel 10 Pro XL, etc., are gone; I’ve kept the cute Pixel 8a in beautiful blue, very compact, running GrapheneOS. That’s more than enough—it lasts almost 3 days, and here too, I’ve installed only the absolute essentials.

Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165 Plus Bluetooth wireless card, both the iwn and iwlwifi successfully bring it up and connect. However, neither driver worked well enough to achieve as fast as 1M/s speen when downloading large files. After installing #Debian downloading speed easily goes up to as 2M/s when downlading the same large files.Debusine's QA pipelines, which checks if #Debian packages are ready to upload, have recently gained a regression tracking mechanism. The regressions are found by checking for new failures in autopkgtests for packages in the archive that depends on the built package.

I was messing with the #debian installer and its disk partitioning. I don't understand this at all. This is plain stupid.
If the partitioning scheme includes swap, it should be the last partition on the disk. This installer frequently puts it in the absolute worst possible place: the middle.
That's dumb, especially in a virtual world where hard disks trivially change size.
See, what if I decide to make this disk bigger? What if I decide I need more swap? If swap is the last partition, it's trivial.
But when you stick swap in the middle of the fscking disk then it makes changes really non-trivial. You really can't change anything.
The only partitioning scheme that gets it right is the "All files in one partition" scheme. Since there's just the one root filesystem, it puts swap at the end.
Also, it appears that you cannot change the size of partitions in this view. Like, if I wasn't happy with 1.1G of swap, tough noogies. That surprises me. The entire POINT of an interactive installer like this is to allow me to specify high-level things like "Gimme 2G of swap" and have the installer recalculate all the start/stop partition values and such. I've done plenty of debian installs, but this is the first time I stopped to notice how bad this is.
Some of you may argue that the problems I cite aren't important. But I defy you to come up with a good reason why one should put the swap partition in the middle of the partition table. You can argue it doesn't hurt, but you cannot argue that it does something good.

Eine Reihe von #Linux Distros habe ich jetzt ausprobiert und letztlich entschieden, nochmal #Manjaro in der #i3wm Version eine Chance zu geben. Seit Stunden richte ich es nun ein. Sogar zur #tty musste ich zwischendurch wechseln, weil ich mir 'nen Knoten gebastelt hatte. Langsam nimmt das ganze aber Gesicht an. Ist bis jetzt "nur" das Notebook, was dafür herhalten muss. Damit hat sich #ArchLinux doch wieder gegen #Debian durchgesetzt. So sei es dann eben…
Nur diese neue Warnung bei #pikaur nervt.
I need a password manager. Needs to work on #Debian #Linux, #Firefox, #Chrome, #Android, #Windows, sync between systems.
Work suggests #KeyPassXC or #Bitwarden, any thoughts?

I am happy with how this turned out.This is for a local startup business that wants an internal wiki (asked for mediawiki) and the ability to have more php-mariadb (mysql) custom web apps.
Why a GUI for a server? Just in case it is needed. I am not going to be doing all the work and I want it as easy as possible to use. Linux Mint Debian Edition is a good fit, as then I can just treat it like a Debian server. That's similar to a lot of the other Linux consulting I do.
I have a hard disk drive for versioned backup. Configured Time Shift to back up everything to it. Seems to work well, as I can browse the Timeshift snapshot in the file browser.
I also set up MediaWiki for them. Learned a few things there. I had to set a root mariadb password. I customized it with a logo and also made some other adjustments to the MediaWiki LocalSettings.php file.
@nixCraft So many people in this thread picking on Ubuntu for this, but it’s certainly not limited to them, or even just to commercial distros. Here’s the #Debian discussion on the matter. https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2026/03/msg00016.html
Yes, this requirement is bullshit. No, pretending it doesn’t exist is not a viable response.
