so a common claim I see made is that arch is up to date than Debian but harder to maintain and easier to break. Is there a good sort of middle ground distro between the reliability of Debian and the up-to-date packages of arch?

    My recommendation would be Debian + Flatpak & Appimages (or + Snaps if you’re the devil). Super stable, but also access to the latest.

    Fedora is also a middle ground too, but they’re pushing flatpaks heavily so it might not matter anyway since Fedora + flatpak and Debian + flatpak are about the same.
