My guess is: Too outdated packages. Debian experimental fixes this, but it's not noob friendly to enable those. And flatpack is too recent.

This was the one for me, was running Debian a few years ago, I was really happy with how everything worked.

But at work I noticed a lot of tools I needed where pretty old. Like an old version of maven or an old version of Firefox or npm.

You can probably work around it, but I just went back to Mint again.

It's gotten better uith flatpak, or if you can handle it: distrobox.
