Do you want to live the boring stable life, where you can just build and build and build your personal poop castle on top of that solid OS for years and years? If yes, switch to Debian. You won’t be reinstalling till you get so bored that you get the urge to self-harm. We can’t afford new hardware anyways, but even if we do, the same install will work on the new system with few tweaks. 😆
The initial setup is a bit more annoying than Pop/Mint/Ubuntu but not too much more. Upgrades are also a bit more annoying but not too much more. There’s good documentation for both of those procedures.

I can’t even say the initial setup was more annoying than Mint.
Awesome,thanks!
What if my new hardware ends up being RISC V?
RISCV, potato, unprocessed sand…it’s all hardware anyway
IIRC Debian supports RISC V
