How "out of date" is Debian really? (programming.dev)

I hear that a lot but, how bad is it really? Does it affect you (if you use Debian)? Aren't there ways to install newer versions of most things that actually matter?

I don't think I can make this clearer for you. Pretty much everyone else seems to have understood the question. You're going to need to figure this one out on your own. Good luck!

LOL I'm not asking because I don't understand and I want you to explain it to me, I'm trying to get you to see the error in your thinking.

There is no error in my thinking, you're just being overly pedantic (while also incorrect).

LOL I disagree.
