Thx for the request to help in this project even not knowing code. I'll
firstly try it on my 14 yr old Debian Buster ex-macbook. Nice way to
include more people &, probably, improve+stabilize the distro much faster.
Learning Linux Debian is a nice hobby(feels more like a lifestyle)

Linux always felt larger than merely another OS, whether Debian or other.
IMO that's because of the free-software movement's stated social goals and
because of the broad cooperation needed to make the software. Yet the
free-software movement is unknown to the humans who rely on Linux servers
as only infrastructure, and mostly ignored as a social movement even by
those who use Linux consciously or with economic intent.

But I should add that the Debian ecosystem always felt bigger than the
other distributions' ecosystems. Thinking of SuSE and RH/CentOS/fedora. It
just seems to vacuum it all up and release it. And I now even encounter
businesses that are uncomfortable in the RH ecosystem because they see
single-vendor dependency there despite open source. I think AWS and Google
cloud deserve some credit for that, having presented Debian and
Debian-based releases (AMI in AWS) as almost canonical. And they have their
own wariness of RH as competitors.
