@TimeSquirrel@RmDebArc_5@nottheengineer@SomeBoyo@dustyData For gaming one year is old, you want the latest drivers in order to achieve maximum performance ( * or at least increase your chances to ).
For office or media consumption maybe one year isn’t old at all.
@TimeSquirrel@RmDebArc_5@nottheengineer@SomeBoyo@dustyData Imo gaming is the only reason to use bleeding edge distros. Otherwise is risky, your system could break with every update.
Even though I said that I also use Arch for uni stuff, but I have everything backed on my own server and in the case of system failure I can simply reinstall arch and mount my network drive again
Nevermind “maximum performance”, back when Elden Ring came out I needed a fresh version of mesa to get it to run at all. That was on Ubuntu, but I doubt Debian would have been any better. At least it was an easy fix to get fresher mesa from a PPA.

Thats what I believe
As not a gamer, I keep forgetting about games and that people also use computers to play them.
