Hello, fellow internet users. I am currently using Debian but would like a distro to try the new Gnome on. I have been using Debian for a while and I love the stability, but would like newer packages. I also, for no rational reason, would like to be able to use the default package manager exclusively. I used Fedora before and liked it more than Debian (apart from that it felt vaguely Windowsey) but I would like to distance myself from the whole red hat thing. What distro do you think I should get?

      i don’t think it’s even in sid yet, at least not the released version of gnome 45… which, like, just came out–yesterday.

      check the pre-release dailies of ubuntu 23.10. it’s due to be released next month and is slated for gnome 45. if you use the dailies, prepare for some… uh… ‘instabilities’

        Yeah, I should have been more clear. I meant I want to have it sometime this year. I know of Arch and Gentoo for quick releases, and I know Debian for lts, but I was looking for more of a middle ground.
