Debian’s “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” philosophy is why I use Debian for all my servers. I would rather have something look old and be functional every time.
I recently started using Linux again after a 15+ year hiatus. The Debian installer looks exactly the same as it did when I stopped using it. I’m not hating, just stating why it might look outdated for some people.
I love that it doesn’t change. I don’t like that when I boot from a ventoy disk it doesn’t install a boot loader. Took me like 5 installs to figure out what was going on.

It’s kinda why I like it. No surprises, it asks you the same dozen questions in the same order and installs your new system.
