From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Great, now is a good time to switch my home server from testing to Trixie then stable. Have been use testing in all my home PCs but recently, I feel the server does not need all the latest updates.
I recently installed trixie on the desktop and will probably stay there and not move to the next testing. I hope it won't feel that outdated after 2 years or so.
I was on Gentoo before, the packaged Gnome version there is actually lower than on trixie currently.
Novice question: Couldn’t you have switched to Trixie months ago and also don’t have to change to Stable? I thought that would give the same result.
