I’ve had a Debian server in my basement for 4 or 5 years. I’ve encountered a total of 2 entire issues the entire time I’ve had that running. One of which was actual bullshit that I’m still pissed about but the other issue I eventually fixed on my own. It has worked well enough that Debian deserves a go at being a daily driver next time I do an os reinstall.
I really really wish I could come up with a command line script way to issue a command that makes the computer reconnect to the wifi without human intervention of any kind, without so much as even a single ui password dialog, but that’s not a distro specific thing. I use iwctl right now, it seems to be the most reliable and I’ve tried them all.
