Hi
Out of some curiosity, I enabled "testing" repo last night. So I my /etc/apt/sources.list looks like this:
```
# See https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList for more information.
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian testing main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian testing main
```
Then I got some 1 GB of updates and I installed those. So far so good, but now I'm having a rest-less heart that I did something wrong. I feel like I should have stayed in "stable". This now troubles me.
The question is, shall I revert back to "stable"?
If yes, how can I do it? Possibly uninstall those new packages and downgrade to stable ones.

Please help me out
