↫ Debian 13 release announcement

I’m never quite sure what to say about new Debian releases, as Debian isn’t exactly the kind of distribution to make massive, sweeping changes or introduce brand new technologies before anyone else. That being said, Debian is a massively important cornerstone of the Linux world, forming the base for many of the most popular Linux distributions.

At some point, you’re going to deal with Debian 13.
