You all did read my message that Debian can be converted to Arch Linux on DigitalOcean, right?
Duly noted (speaking for myself only, of course).
That would leave you with bleeding edge software as you know it from Gentoo.
I checked https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en before settling with Debian Jessie. Using the newest stable Tor was my major concern, as Jessie comes with Tor 0.2.5.x, if I remember correctly. Getting packages from deb.torproject.org solves this. Beyond that I am mostly concerned with things like OpenSSL, where "cutting edge" is an important issue. I haven't used Debian for a long time, so I'll have to do some digging.
