I’d assume because there’s no alternative that’s good enough.

HN has its problems, but it’s still worthwhile if you can ignore the politics and focus on technical discussions.

Yeah. Recently I was expecting a message from a bank, finally I got a call… from a chatbot claiming it has an important message for me, but first I have to give it my private info to verify myself and there’s no way to validate the call is legit first.

When I complained to the bank they just told me I shouldn’t worry, they made the call so it’s perfectly safe and there’s nothing to worry about…

Ironically, it’s the rolling release that’s much more stable for me.

“Stable” distros often had a long and risky process of upgrading to the next major release.

Meanwhile, my Arch install has been pretty damn stable for over 10 years and went through several different PCs.
