TL;DR: If you're willing to overlook the fact that upstream Linux kernel doesn't really care about keeping 32-bit x86 secure or working, the next problem is that Debian can't build some packages any more because the package's build process wants more than 4G RAM. Would require people resources to optimise that and perhaps drop some packages; arguably limited time is better spent elsewhere.
Saying "but I want this" doesn't change these things.
Which is why every distro drops 32-bit x86.
hmmmmm ... unter #debian lassen sich mit Paket "android-file-tansfer" sehr einfach und schnell Dateien via ISB-Kabel von einem #android-Telefon holen. 👍
if you install #Debian with #XFCE, you get the xfce4-goodies package, which means you get xfburn. LOL, CD burning. I don't even have an optical drive in this machine.
🧵 …although I tend to favour OpenBSD and Linux for personal reasons, I find this decision OK. Certain open source projects lack clear, reasoned positions and decisions.

I think maybe #Debian 12 with #XFCE is literally perfect for me. And that's without doing anything in terminals, only clicking around in GUI settings. I didn't even have to install any additional packages.
@tulpa Debian 12 with Cinnamon is what I'm currently doing. Cool thing about Debian is that it's easy to try different desktop environments by choosing at the login screen.
@apgarcia I had a problem doing that recently. I had MATE and XFCE installed at the same time, and the MATE components being present seemed to make trouble for XFCE. Specifically, I had theme and sound issues.
Wie kann ich in /etc/network/interfaces in #Debian es einstellen, dass auf allen Interfaces #DHCP gemacht wird, auch wenn ich jetzt noch nicht weiß, wie das Interface in Zukunft heißen wird?
Jetzt steht da halt:
iface enp1s0 inet dhcp
Aber auf einer anderen Hardware heißt das Ding ja vielleicht eth0 statt enp1s0...
Also was tun?
Brauch ich ein Startupscript, dass die Config generiert?
Ubuntu 22.04 (LTS) is also critically broken. Example: Depending on your storage configuration IO performance can be 100x worse when compared to an unpatched mainline kernel. (dsync when using mdraid 5 or 6 on NVMe)
I gave up because pipx refuses to install urwid, and I think Debian's version is drumroll way too old. ;)
I wish pipx just had scli. There's an scli package in PyPI, but it's literally an empty placeholder for nothing.
Infuriating.
The funny part about the removal of networking from the default #keepassxc package on #debian, is that they did it for "security" reasons, without thinking that the MOST INSECURE way to transfer a #password to your #browser is via the CLIPBOARD. Absolutely every running app or service can read the clipboard! And yet, that's the default way they expect users to do it now!
