First: Where did a 2023 release of Buster come from? :shock: By 2023, I figured that Buster was Dead and Buried as far as you folks were concerned.
Buster used to be the "legacy" release and was kept updated for a while.
Second: What's the difference? Does it even have a desktop? Is the kernel more recent or anything else potentially significant?
From the file name that appears to be the "standard" version with Desktop. The "Full" one contains the desktop and a load of preloaded software. There is usually the "Lite" version as well which doesn't have a desktop installed.
Third: If I did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, does that put me in the same place as the 2023 release?
Maybe? I don't know. I haven't used Buster for some time as it is pretty much "Dead and Buried".
