I remember trying Linux Mint Debian when it came out and was a mess. Packages always breaking and this was the testing repositories. They eventually moved to an update pack system and even though they are tested, they are out of date.

Ubuntu and their derivatives like Trisquel add an extra layer of testing and the LTS releases are stable. Having the PPA system in Ubuntu is helpful so that those LTS releases have an option to get up to date software if needed.

I'm glad Trisquel is sticking with Ubuntu and being LTS only. Trisquel 4 is still one of my favorite operating systems of all time and I hope future releases can maintain that charm.
