Support for what? I'm self supported. I know it's hard to believe but not all computers utilize the cloud.Isn't Debian stretch out of support?
I'm also a bit curious what you found wrong in the next releases.
I suppose no more cruising in the classic autos since they don't have seatbelts and airbags. When the youngin's declare old tech illegal on the road I'm breaking out the red barchetta from the chicken coup....I'm the Uncle.
Anyway, those mid versions of Xfce were a little problematic. VMM had some interface options missing for awhile, fuse transitions, polkit and systemd evolution, etc. Not deal breakers, just a lack of compelling improvement, and fatter. Bookworm really did come together well, except ghb and gnutv are broken.
My stretch has most of this goodness that it did not have initially, gives nearly infinite uptime and is nothing more that a front end for other computers (remote vm's), all running 12. The replacement has been continuously ready through all those iterations, with no need or reason to run it yet. Next time I shut it down for hardware changes (removals) I'll likely stick to 12 from then on. 10's are gone, 2 11's may hang on a bit.
I rarely play with older stuff, but I suspect the peak performing i386 was indeed stretch. I have built images of all, so we'll see. But with vmm anything with 4GB can comfortably leverage my vm server to do anything, as a ‘front end’.
