https://github.com/Debian/raspi3-image-spec
"sudo dd if=raspi3.img of=/dev/sdb bs=5M"

https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi3
"... | dd of=/dev/sdb bs=64k oflag=dsync status=progress"

dd ... bs=5M
or
dd ... bs=64k oflag=dsync status=progress

Is a consistent newbie recommendation possible here?


Problem Statement (my understanding):
- Raspian follows Official Debian releases, meaning
Kernel 4.9 until next year sometime.

- Mozilla Firefox (since 52?) and friends need
Kernel 4.14 for Sound to work.

- Therefore, some (vast hordes of) Raspian refugees
can be expected here in the forseeable future.


Thank you,
