I stopped using dedicated distros, such as Raspian, when Ubuntu went all-in on RPi support, which happened in their newest release focal (20). The dedicated distros often have an unhelpful attitude -- e.g., "you should use *this* package, not *that* package" -- that doesn't work for me.

I am confused by these two paragraphs. Are you planning to use Debian
'testing' on you Raspberry Pi, or Ubuntu 'focal' aka 20.04?

And out of curiousity, is that a hosted machine?  Typically these are
toy-sized and usually at home.
