Like many Linux users, I occasionally get the urge to distro-hop. It's part of the fun. It's a genuine feeling of freedom. All these different Linux distributions are basically calling you to try them out. Exploring different philosophies, package managers, init systems, and communities.

So I recently stepped away from my trusty Debian setup to try Arch Linux, Void Linux, even Fedora and Manjaro. All excellent in their own ways. I wanted to explore other options, because, you see, I've got a new hardware a few months ago, and initially Debian stable was not very good friends with it. The kernel could not recognize my Ethernet and wireless cards, for instance. I was devastated, knowing that I might have to look elsewhere, even only temporarily, in order to have a working computer with optimized hardware. So, I looked at alternative solutions within Linux universe.

I have always been interested in knowledge, both acquiring and retaining it. That's the reason I am obsessed with organizing my files and folder into logical structures. Previously, I wrote about my latest organization of my digital files.

Two years ago I wrote about the arrival of the new Debian version, Bookworm. Every two years or so, Debian issues a new version, and, well, it's that time of the year again, Debian 13 (Trixie) has just been released, and it's very much awesome.

So, what's in the Trixie's candy store?
