How "out of date" is Debian really? (programming.dev)

I hear that a lot but, how bad is it really? Does it affect you (if you use Debian)? Aren't there ways to install newer versions of most things that actually matter?

My main issue with it isn’t being out of date. Although that is also an issue.

The main issue is just overall lack of packages in the repos compared to arch.
