Debian is a stable distro and therefore tends to have less up-to-date packages.

Ahh so Mint is kept up to date like Ubuntu/Fedora and doesn't have all the telemetry and pop ups for Ubuntu Pro. Thank you!

Ubuntu and Fedora have different “up-to-date”. Ubuntu is patching old code to work / feel modern and Fedora is updating as fast as possible to new Software.

I think Ubuntu is unnecessary doing double work, but I guess they have to, since they have drifted too far from upstream…
