The packages in Debian are really old. It's awful.

I was looking at my xzutils package the other month. "So outdated," I thought, envying the cool hip trendy Arch users.

    Yeah, I had to bail. FreeBSD was awesome for stable yet bleeding-edge packages, a perfect blend of downloading binaries and compiling from source (when needed) with everything in sync.

    These days I’m using Alpine Linux almost exclusively, but I miss the convenience of FreeBSD and wish it wasn’t being left behind by the Kool Kidz™.
