To whom is may concern,
I am writing this email to ask Debian crew to please release an official Debian ISO with the v6.18.2 Kernel. Right now Debian official release only has Kernel v6.12.x And it's way too old.

Just so you know :

1) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.x and its clones like Rocky Linux 8.x and AlmaLinux 8.x default to the 4.18 kernel series, supported until 2029 by Red Hat's engineers.

2) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.x and its clones like Rocky Linux 9.x and AlmaLinux 9.x default to the 5.14 kernel series, supported until 2032 by Red Hat's engineers.

3) Debian Trixie defaults to the 6.12 kernel, supported officially until a year after the release of the subsequent stable release with bugfixes by the Debian maintainers. After that, the LTS team takes over with two more years of support.

If this doesn't convince you, you might want to move to a bleeding edge distribution like Debian Sid, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, Arch Linux, Void Linux, Gentoo or Fedora. You'll have the latest kernel, but stuff will occasionally break or blow up in your face.

:o)

Cheers,

Niki (writing these lines on Rocky Linux 9 with a 5.14 kernel)
