I read the previous comment and thought to myself "I bet there is some reply about LTS vs rolling release to this". I KNEW IT!

Yep, been in the same boat 😂. Was an LTS fan for a long long time till I realized... this shit ain't worth it 😂.

Everthing there is out there in 99% of the cases compiles against latest libraries. And well, LTS is just... lagging behind 🤷. So, you solve one lib dependcy and then, bam, another one pops up... OK, solved that one, bam, another one 😒... it just gets frustrating to compile stuff on LTS.

And then you get all sorts of errors from the package manager cuz you did the unthinkable - install latest libs on an LTS distro.

LTS is good for one thing only nowadays - servers.
