Yes and no. They seem to prioritize stability and security over everything else. So they usually only push updates to the stable repo if it doesn’t compromise those 2 points (so new features are okay but so long as they don’t create new instability or at the very least fix a security flaw).
So in other words nothing there is particularly ancient but most things are several versions behind just due to bugs being found etc. Great for servers but on a desktop most people wouldn’t notice these kind of bugs so they tend to get pushed in other distro’s a lot sooner.
Unless war were declared…
