Ubuntu. Why bother setting up debian to work nicely when you can just get it set up professionaly.

The word "Ubuntu" is a West African word, translating roughly to "I can't configure Debian"

trying to figure out if its worth switching to debian or not.
>>
>>55194136
Install your preferred DE from the Debian installer.
>>
>>55194136
Start off Ubuntu. I always recommend it for absolute beginners.

If you're a bit technologically competent, you can do Debian. It "just works" out of the box too, just to a less beginner friendly way

wtf man, she' 12

Do you enjoy your packages being old as fuck?

Ubuntu is downstream from Debian bro

>>55194189
Yeah there is Debian-testing you know
>>
>>55194482
I did notice that, there are like 4 Debian/Ubuntu threads rn
>>
>>55194175
Id consider myself technologically very competent. I still see no reason to try Debian over Ubuntu. What advantages will it bring for my day to day laptop use?
>>
>>55193781
Ugentu.

>day to day laptop use
you don't need linux for that

Why are you here?

Maybe not compared to you but Im certainly way above avarage internet user.

>They're fucking holding hands

Debian is better
>>
>>55194912
I can answer that Debian is superior to Ubuntu for some specifical kind of professional use.

Outside of that, really, the question makes no sense. The only reason why you may need to use a Linux on a daily basis is "nerdy" hobby.

It's the same fucking thing.
One's made for being stable and old as fuck.
The other one is made on the stable old as fuck system with a custom interface and to be slightly more up to date the the last one while not breaking everything.

>Be on Ubuntu. Everything just werks.
>/g/ tells me to try out Debian. Why not?
>Install Debian. Old Kernel. Wifi hardware not detected. Get a bunch of errors on boot everytime.

Wrong analogy mate.

You should have used a car that shares the same chassis and engine and the only thing that changes is the interior which is made to look more modern with proprietary shit.

So you're confirming the only difference is the "brand"

I thought debian cant into ppa.

>The only reason why you may need to use a Linux on a daily basis is "nerdy" hobby.
what kind of retarded statement is that ?
The only reason why you may need to use Windows on a daily basis is gaymen.

>>55195151
there are 6 different debian branches, and some of them have newer packages than ubuntu.
ubuntu is based on debian testing. there is unstable and experimental which are both more up to date than testing.

>>55195165
you could at least try to read what you are trying to install.
theres also an install image based on testing with nonfree firmware/drivers included

Ubuntu is the retarded ugly and potato daugther birth by a hot , juicy, mature and intelectual milf (Debian)
