How is testing? (programming.dev)

I usually switch to testing about 1 year after the release of stable. We're about the 9 month mark and I'm getting anxious. Any major issues running testing? This is for my main desktop.

I've been running testing on multiple workstations for over a decade and very rarely have issues. Just avoid updates right after the rollover to stable and you're good.
