Nah, the installer is much more tame than it used to be. I just like to poke fun at ye olden times.
I did make a huge recent mistake by using an NVIDIA GPU on Debian. Every time it updated was playing Russian roulette with “is this gonna break my system and send me into six hours of troubleshooting?” Til I finally said fuck it and swapped it with my brother for his AMD card. And I haven’t had a single issue since.
I like Debian, but NVIDIA drivers just refused to play nice for any extended period of time.
I’m having my own issues with an old laptop with an nvidia card, but on Fedora. Upgraded from 43 to 44 recently. I love how relatively pain-free Fedora updates and upgrades are, especially for being a somewhat bleeding edge distro.
But after the last upgrade I’m having an issue now where closing the lid to put it into sleep mode causes it to wake to a black screen. I’ve just been having to shut down every time I step away.

Never getting Nvidia again.
