Im so pleased whenever I see developers hosting their own repos. It just feels like its meant to be, straight from the source and official.

Until you do a major release distro upgrade :)
I used the stones…to destroy the stones
*gulp*
to be fair though I did a major upgrade on a raspberry with jellyfin and miniflux repos without any backups. (as its just for personal use and recreating configs from scratch would maybe be even beneficial) i was surprised that everything just worked.
to be completely fair though it was bookworm > trixie where they had some time now to fix problems.
I ignored hyprland warning me for months that it was going to stop using .conf files to configure it and to switch to .lua files. Then one day I updated and it broke everything lmao. Took an evening of migrating everything
I’m praying my install of Kubuntu will be fine for a little longer before I have to rebuild completely, I really don’t want to reinstall obscure shit
Some time ago I started using distroboxes for most things. I have a distrobox with vscodium and Go installed, another distrobox for typesetting with TeX, another for a project that needed weird dependencies installed, etc. Most standalone GUI programs as flatpaks. The result is a Debian base that stays vanilla and predictable. The downside is having to keep the distroboxes updated individually. But upgrading the base system is never stressful.
