How "out of date" is Debian really? (programming.dev)

Is we that a lot but, how bad is it really? Does it affect you (if you use Debian)? Aren't there ways to install newer versions of most things that actually matter?

If you're not a Java dev (and don't see it often) a good way to remember it is that "adopt openjdk" was the original name of the project when Oracle changed their terms back in 2019. The idea was to get people to "adopt" openjdk instead of Oracle jdk. The name of the project changed due to trademarks but it'll get you close enough when you search for it lol.
