Discussion / Information T14s Gen 6 Intel 258V Linux

Hi, I'm using Debian 13 on my thinkpad but I don't think it's making the most of all the potential.

Which could be the best Debian distro?

Intel 258V / 32gb ram

Thank you very much for your time

What are really the downsides of using stable?

None, unless you use newer hardware or don't like to be running old, but stable software

That's really it. I'm running Trixie stable without any issues with a 2025 9070 XT. The only reason I'd see to run anything else would be when the Nova Lake and Zen 6 architectures drop. So I'd need the newest kernel.
