Is we that a lot but, how bad is it really? Does it affect you (if you use Debian)? Aren’t there ways to install newer versions of most things that actually matter?

    Yes, there are ways to install newer versions in a way that shouldn’t cause any issues (as opposed to adding a bunch of unstable repos): Flatpak.

    IMO Flatpak has made Debian a lot more usable. You get the stability of the Debian base system but can have newer apps if you want to, without unnecessarily complicating matters with PPA repositories.
