This is why I use MX, it is Debian based, but always up to date, for instance I have kernel 6.18.6. Firefox is always the latest a few hours after release, and always in .deb, no flatpak. MX has a couple of their utilities that are useful to setup your system too.

    Recently tried MX and definitely +1.

    The disclaimer is I haven't tried too many of the shiny new distros to compare to, but compared to RHEL and Manjaro (ugh), Ubuntu, Mint, and a few other 'traditional' choices, MX has been crazy easy to setup and use.

    The one thing that hasn't "just worked" is a USB4 dock that kinda' works like extra PCIe lanes (it's just how that style of dock works), which of course the OS is going to freak out if a few PCIe devices suddenly disappear when unplugged. It's not exactly a hot-swappable protocol!

    I'd like to know how to get it working flawlessly, but everything else has been great.
