General Debian • [Discussion] Why Debian still uses sudo instead of doas?

I personally see since I use it. A lot.
I frequently forget what I wanted to execute as root (I mean, execute one command as root, one as unprivileged, then remind meself of thing to do so another command as root...), in my case I would swap between both all the time - so instead I utilize doas with disabled password prompt
I can't and won't argue against your personal preferences, but I do think it is a good idea to make a clear distinction between root and regular user environments. This separation is there for security reasons, and understanding when to issue commands as root and user will help you avoid unintended consequences of executing commands with elevated privileges.
