>which one and why?
for what purpose, you raging faggot
>>54140202
There can only be one.
>>54140147
Gentoo
Ubuntu because ease of use. And the botnet fearing folks can turn it off in a couple of clicks.
Debian because Ubuntu is "I'm scared-to-try-linux-for-the-first-time-so-I-run-it-on-VirtualBox"-tier.
>>54140147
Anything vs sellout
Choice is yours
Why not Gentoo? Fucking normie
>>54140147
Ubuntu in desktops
Debian in servers
Debian because no bloat or qmazon
>>54140147
Debian as I don't bend over to be fucked by Microsoft.
>>54140260
There's literally no reason to use Gentoo over Debian.

Huh, hows that special you autistic fuck?
On Debian and all other distros you can compile away if you want specific features enabled and disabled.

I can guarantee you haven't used debian in years. Right now you can have Testing running at the first try without doing shit, just like obanto. Maybe you'll run into missing firmware but there are non-free firmware ISO files available.

>>54140400
Yeah and what do you do when you need the firmware iso for your NIC and you don't have another PC and no ethernet cable ?
>>54140500

>wrapped in a blanket
>>54141103
you should always download the iso that includes non-free firmware.
>>54141151
But it doesn't install the nonfree firmware. You really need ethernet to set up wireless.
Or maybe it would work if you downloaded it with a DE preinstalled? I haven't tried it before.

Time sink OS. It's cool if that's your bag but it isn't worth it for non-autists. Takes literally 8 hours just to install it.
>>54140165
excellent bait
>>54140147
Both are trash, just use Fedora.
ubuntu, because i can use amazon directly
and debian is ugly
and ubuntu is better for privacy
ubuntu for newbies
debian for everyone else
>>54141505
Don't mean to be the underage anon, but why doesn't Debian play games with the latest configuration of Wine? I know I sound generic as fuck, bit everytime I wanted to run a game, eg. San Andreas, it would crash, or tell me that drivers are missing. So, how do you Debianfags deal with missing drivers in the games you want to run?
>>54141610
san andreas was developped for windows
so, go to windows
Wine is shit
>>54141610
good q,
you have to install wine from upstream;
check to see if its in the backports repo
>>54140147
Debian, because it's the original, not a fork.
>>54140147
Why not try 'em both and decide which you like? It's a pretty simple exercise.
>>54140147
They are the same
>>54140147
Debian because that's what I've been using since 1999 on all my desktop and server machines.
>>54140500
> shoveling dirt arch
Kek. Arch user can confirm the analogy has some truth
Personally i prefer Debian as it doesn't randomly break half the time for no reason. But either way you're going to have access to the same software. Just try out both and use the one you think feels better for you.
Gentoo

ubuntu == debian

B is not equal to A
I dont think this can be write in any way
>>54140147
My teacher made me download Debian, so I say Debian.
someone post the image that shows the progression of a linux user.. starts out on ubuntu, moves onto arch spending insane amounts of time doing routine shit and eventually goes back to ubuntu
>>54146914
A square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square.
Manjaro is the obvious answer

Absolutely Debian. Ubuntu is basically Debian with more crap on it.
