I think there are places in which using a derivative provides reasonablñe
advantage. I am not saying never to use a derivative, I am saying that in this
case I see not great benefit in it. Different thing.

I am not impressed by the whole Debian ecosystem myself :-) Devuan seems to be
quite ok nowadays but I am certainly not using it in deep.

My policy regarding Slackware's slow release cycle is: keep everything in the
most recent stable release; when not possible, use a BSD; when not possible,
use Devuan.
