Then why don't you go use Fedora if you're so unhappy with Debian? That
would save us all a lot of pissing and moaning on this mailing list, and
you a lot of grief.

​Would not save that much, actually, since almost everyone here uses Debian and are Debian users, and furthermore, hopefully, users who use Debian and Debian only. But again, that is not necessary for you to be Debian user to use Debian singularly. Just stick to the Debian Policy, and that is it.​
