I’m running Debian 10 and I saw that there was a new release of Alacritty, so I checked the version I was running which was 0.4.2 and went to apt update and it said everything was up to date? Am I somehow running a super stable Debian version?

    Hmm, I don’t understand your question. Are you surprised by Debian’s packages being outdated (they’re always outdated) or by it being that outdated (they’re usually that outdated)…?

    Debian is a very slow-moving distro. When a developer releases a new version of their software, it may very well take years until it arrives in Debian Stable.
