wat do
M8
GNOME or Mate are the only sane options
>>51755393
Suck me kekboy
Please don't burn me on a stake here, but do any include window snapping like in Win10 or do I need install a window manager once I'm set up?
Don't select any of them and install a tiling window manager
>>51755393
SSH and access it from your windows 10 machine. The only correct option.
Install Unity
>>51755444
KDE does, not sure about others.
Running Debian testing with MATE on my laptop, it's fucking brillo bananas. Just the right balance between performance and features for me.
>>51755444
MATE does m8
>>51755444
All except for LXDE include it.
>>51755472
but windows does not have a ssh client.
literally just 40 gb of waste
>>51755393
What happens if you just press continue?
I'm genuinely curious.
>>51755917
it installs gnome(-fallback), I think
>>51755895
what is putty client
>>51755393
cinnamon or xfce
>>51756435
A rather outdated one, considering the lack of ed25519 key, curve25519 exchange, EtM and chacha20-poly1305 support - the dev version has only just had ECDSA added! Simon's a good guy, but PuTTY has stagnated for a long time and is only just beginning to get back on track as a project. That he hosts the software on an unencrypted server and signed it with keys that are far too small for something that genuinely is a massive surveillance target irks me too.
OpenSSH-portable compiles fine under Cygwin however, and solutions like Babun to have that whole thing running comfortably out-of-the-box are around.
>>51756435
what is it, you ask?
eh?
a shitty, poorly written xterm emulator with awkward controls and legacy options storing
sounds like everything else in windows really
any more questions, anon?
>>51755895
Actually...

>>51756536
Interesting, didn't know that. Guess I'm switching to the Cygwin method.
>>51755413
>>51755427
these. go with mate
>>51755393
if you're installing Jessie stop. STOP RIGHT NOW.
Go fot Testing (stretch).
I like xfce compared to gnome, kde and cinnamon, but i'm too lazy to try anything else.
>>51756815
I am running mate, too. It's comfy. Really like it. Way better than Unity or KDE, or Pantheon (lel)
>>51755393
Uncheck Debian Desktop environment
Uncheck print server
Check SSH server
>>51755393
XFCE is love and life. Ignore the gnome metro hype.
>>51756435
but you have to download it and its not that well laid out as a program.
its easier to just typessh me@host
Unity
>>51757223
Not even once.
>>51755393
Abort and install gentoo
>>51755427
>there are actually people using gnome
>>51755393
xfce is the only sane option, it's lightweight and fast but also customizable
>>51755393
Xfce
>>51755393
>not having an own DE of choice
>>51756536
its still fine for the casual user
>>51756435
BU-BUT FREEDOM!
>>51756537
Nice defense
debian 8 is kinda outdated, newer gnome is getting better, but the gnome it has now (3.14) is ok.
using it on my thinkpad because i don't really want to change how i've got it now.
Install all of them and choose the desktop environment that best suits your tastes and needs.
Once you find that, you can uninstall the desktop environments you don't want to use.
