in reply to Debian

I'm new to the @debian game.
I just saw in the documentation "Upgrades to Debian 13 "trixie" from the previous release, Debian 12 "bookworm", are automatically handled by the APT package management tool for most configurations. "

However, my debian didn't offer me upgrade in any way. Do I have to install a specific upgrade package?

Currently I'm using a standard installation based on KDE.
Or is upgrade only supported in gnome stock software packages?

Can anyone help? #Followerpower

TIP: Je nutné, aby kolo mělo stojánek? Na co si u stojánku dát pozor

Máte na kole stojánek? Tedy nejspíše takovou tu „věc“ na (často) levé straně zadního kola, kterou můžete sklopit a opřít o ni kolo? Pak možná jenom čas od času řešíte to, že je potřeba to utahovat, protože se tomu uvolňují šrouby a přemýšlíte, proč to tam vlastně máte.

Original description ( peertube.debian.social/w/9J5zi… )

"Parody of a popular clip from the American-Malayalee television series 'Akkarakazhchakal' (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akkara_K…) advertising Debian.

Those unaware, watch the the original clip from the series here: youtu.be/GzeAQlSxVvc. In the series, an expat from Kerala, India creates this ad for his insurance company named "Thekkumoottil insurance".

Made by folks of Debian India who has laughed enough to the original Akkarakazhchakal clip. A fun fact that somebody told me (subin): People used to torrent this 2008 show, it's arguably the first Malayalee tv show that was shared via torrent. Even after 15 years since its end, the show is adored by Malayalees"
