Agent forwarding support would be nice.
Re:Why do I run FreeBSD for my home servers on Tuesday April 01, 2025 @03:09AM (#43543730)
This is entirely false and the opposite is true. Debian has much more granular package splitting and less hard dependencies.
dnf has recently added automatic restart support of systemd system services (and soon user services). It's opt-in per package, but expect things to restart more in the future.
dnf has support for using the CoW support of Btrfs to make all the disk I/O more efficient. Might be why you're seeing dnf being more efficient, because my somewhat outdated experience is totally opposite.

The MAX is actually v4 after the original (-100/200), classic (-300/400/500) and NG (-600/700/800/900).

In Norway it's "I'll vipps you 50 crowns" or "jeg vippser deg 50 kroner". The verb is actually in the Norwegian dictionary now.

Sweden has Swish with over 4 million users.
