I have a local archive of this list for that reason. It allows using booleans in a personally convenient way. SeaMonkey allows me to tag posts as I read/re-read them with appropriate tag(s) to ease searching.

My experience with Debian was quite on the contrary, though. I had downloaded only Stable (Stretch) DVD#1 image and intalled offline from that. Grub recognized and created a bott menu entry for every other OS in my dual hard disks. I had selected Xfce as the desktop. And everything went as smooth as it can possibly be. Later on, I went online and did update + upgrade, which too went without issues. Granted, my desktop is 7 years old so all the drivers and firmware were already included in the base system, so I didn't have to download the latest unofficial firmware collection from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/ as explained in https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware Then I proceeded to upgrade Debian Stable (Stretch) to Testing (Buster), and from then on I am occasionally experiencing minor and temporary hiccups here and there, which is natural and expected in the testing branch. I am happy with testing on two fronts: (1) I get to use the latest program versions (which are important for young and fast developing projects like LXQt, Qupzilla, etc.) and, (2) I get the opportunity of modest contribution to development by my occasional bug reports.
