Sometimes I do wonder if these older established Linux distributions aren't doomed to implode on themselves. There's just so much complexity and legacy stuff all over the place that it's unsettling to me. I've been using Debian based Linux distros for more than a decade and I'm still confused trigger shy about doing certain things because I can't mentally calculate the outcome with confidence or have a clear back-out plan if something goes wrong. This is actually why I run Linux in a VM whenever possible. Snapshots have saved me so many times.
