I ran Debian unstable on my main system for many years. It was a great 
learning experience, whether I wanted that or not.

Unstable is challenging when you rely on that system for any kind of 
useful work, regardless if a movie night with friends or a big 
presentation at work, as each and every upgrade has the potential to 
break your system in new and interesting ways.

Eventually I switched mostly to stable because of the time investment 
needed to maintain unstable *and* associated mitigation strategies.

I still have unstable (or testing) installations, e.g. to monitor 
support for my hardware, new developments, etc., but they are rarely (if 
ever) providing any essential service for me.

Kind regards,
Andrei
