Switching from Debian Stable to the Testing // Repositories

[AlphaElwedritsch]

Hi
after switching to testing, do I have to enable the DFSG Repositories again? Or are these only relevant for stable?

once again thank you very much

Hi there, Testing and Sid don't require any other repositories.

Thank you
I've switched my personal Laptop now to Testing and gave my Mother an older one with stable.
She's happy. Browser, E-Mail and LibreOffice, that's all she need...

Conclusion: SpiralLinux rocks 👍

Is it a good idea to add:
deb https://security.debian.org/debian-security testing-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware to /etc/apt/sources.list, when using testing?

[geckolinux]

Interesting, I actually haven't heard of that one. I'll have to look into it a bit more.

@geckolinux could you get a look, yet?

@marwenius found the most definitive information here:

OK, but is it worth to use the repo?

[geckolinux]

I would say no.
