After years of distro hopping, I had one to many updates which borked some driver & realized what I’m really looking for is my laptop should be boring stable appliance. Incredibly happy with it so far.

And if I want to use my OS to feel cool? If I want to run programs whose new features I mostly don’t per se need but which give me an artificial sense of agency and make me feel less empty? If seeing a wall of updates whose contents I’ll rarely bother to inspect gives the little autism gremlin living in my brain an erection? What then, Debian fanboys?
sed -i '/ trixie /!d; s/trixie/unstable/g' /etc/apt/sources.listTruly that simple!
Note that packages in unstable channel are promoted from testing, so switching to unstable effectively puts you on to something similar to a rolling distro, but more stable ;)
you can always add repositories that push updated software, or side load it as a .deb from a download
you can also compile it from source yourself
