Optimizing Your Debian 13 Desktop

The not optimising, that's making it insecure and bloated.

Exactly this.

Indeed, it would be useful to know why each of these points are not enabled by default (including a huge amount of non-free and less verified software is an obvious one). In particular the `sbin` one I assumed because it's stuff you'd only use as root and they already have it on their path. E.g. `reboot` might say "not found" but `sudo reboot` will work.

> An installation of Debian 13, by default, uses DNS servers of your local ISP which are usually very slow.

I hear this a lot, but I wonder how often it's actually true. Ping-wise I get sub-millisecond time to my ISP's resolver, ~8ms to CF and Google, and ~4ms to Quad9. DNS wise (as reported by dig) I get ~20ms for a cache miss with my ISP and Quad9, and ~40ms with CF and Google.

Considering TFA recommends benchmarking repository mirrors to select the fastest one, I'm not sure why the same recommendation isn't made for DNS resolvers.
