    Yeah but then I get an ancient version because I use Debian.

    I think the last time I used Blender I installed it through Steam.

      That is part of the deal with Debian. You get stable software… but you only get stable software. If you want bleeding edge software, you’ll have to install it manually to /usr/local, build from source and hope that you have the dependencies, or containerize it with Distrobox.

      If you go to a butcher, don’t complain about the lack of vegan options.

        I’m aware and I’m not complaining. Just sharing what I thought was a funny story of using Steam as a package manager.
