The RaspberryPI-5 now comes with enough RAM to make it a reasonable

plain-vanilla Debian OS, because that's what I'm most familiar with.
Does such a thing exist? If so, where can I download it?
The current state of Debian on Raspberry Pi is documented here:
<https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPiImages>
and it's unfortunately not great; the autobuilder has been broken since
last year so there are no current images, and Pi 5 doesn't work at all
yet with a vanilla kernel (Raspbian have custom patches)
