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.

    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.
