Debian is a lightweight, robust, and fully customizable Linux OS that is also free and open-source.

The best part about Debian is that it's a free and open-source Linux-based operating system that is being developed and maintained by a community of people like us. New versions of Debian are released approximately every two years with five years of LTS. It is a good choice for web servers, personal computers, and IoT devices. It comes with extensive hardware support and 59000 installable packages. Many popular Linux distros like Ubuntu, Devuan, and Deepin are based on the Debian Linux system.

Debian LTS versions may not be always uptodate with security patches. Nonfree hardware drivers have to be downloaded from third-party websites. Limited enterprise-level support.

I've used a LOT of different distros over a lot of years - starting with Slack when it first came out, and Redhat (before it was Fedora), Arch, CentOS, and OpenSUSE to name a few. Debian stands out as the no-nonsense distro for production systems.

Debian strikes the perfect balance between new-package availability and system stability... which is exactly what's needed for a production application environment. In my opinion, Debian (and Debian-based distros) have the best package manager: apt (and apt get).

Debian outshines other distros as a production server, but it falls behind other distros as a desktop distro, like Ubuntu, that trade a bit of stability for more cutting-edge applications and application versions. That said, you can usually strike your own balance between new versions and stability by using Personal Package Archives (PPAs).

The best of Debian are: very adapted for different hardware, customizable and safe.

The worst of Debian are: Buggy updates and more difficult to install than other distributions.

I have been using the Debian since the potato version. compare to other Linux distros like the RPM-based (Redhat, centos), based on my personal experience Debian is the best. It really suit my need for a powerful server service on the cloud base or on premise

- stable, debian only release the stable package, means that only if the app has been tested it will be deploy /reelease. - powerful, time has proved that debian is the most powerful linux distro - a lot of other distro using debian as the based, example ubuntu - off course its free, no charge at all when you used it

- no official support only community - no long time support - late on release the new version

Debian has always been stable, widely supported very popular works on any type of processors or devises. even if there isn't an official release from Debian that support certain devises there would a community forked distribution based on Debian that support it.

Debian Linux is one of the oldest last real Open source projects still standing, supported developed and driven by the community, unlike many other open source projects that has already given up and got infiltrated by big tech money or influence. Debian is still a real free open source project as in freedom. Debian is also the base and seed for alot of other widely used Linux distributions and open source projects specially Ubuntu Linux, and speaking of Ubuntu I always recommend Debian over Ubuntu Ubuntu is not a real open source project, Ubuntu is just one those many other commercial companies that tries to profit from the open source community projects, which threatens the open source world more than it may benefit it, For stability long term support and to avoid surprises that a company may decide to kill one version to sell you the next release or their newest product. sticking with Debian it's much safe for that regard. because if it benefits the community that a project stays alive forever it will stay alive forever, supported and driven by the community that use it and that's exactly what Debian has been.

There is nothing i can think of that's wrong with Debian, other than commercially supported projects like Ubuntu trying to overlap with Debian and keep it off the picture, to build their commercial brand that will be selling later. Debian Linux has a new release every 2 years with long term support limited to 5 years compared to projects tied or dependant on commercial Linux specially RedHat Enterprise based distribution which offer long term support for up to 9 years. with a release every 3 to 4 years.

Debian is still one of the three most traditional and respected Linux distributions. It is totally free and has more than 55,000 also free applications available to install. Being the base for the development of several of the most popular distributions worldwide is indeed a solid testimony of its quality and design.

Although Debian may look like a simple and not fancy system it is done on purpose so each user can tailor it according to his preferences and eventually even according to its hardware limitations. Memory management and kernel stability are indeed remarkable on Debian allowing the use of obsolete hardware.

Debian is not a new users friendly type of distribution. It requires some time to get acquainted with it. Debian's default application package may again look and feel skinny for new users but the objective is to allow more customization depending on the machine use. For example, there is no reason to prepare and use a fancy interface with plenty of graphical effects on a network server. A simple nevertheless totally functional interface can be used instead. This type of customization requires some degree of knowledge which may look intimidating for new users.

My web server, database, DNS, and mail servers are powered by Debian. They have very good performance and uptime of more than a month.

Debian is always free and open-source. It provides excellent performance and uptime, a stable and secure environment, and has low hardware requirements.

Some APT packages I want to use are either missing or outdated. I have to install or build the latest version from the source.

Very good experience and I am happy with it

Security, Software updates Memory Management File system Management. Free with no price.

Links of sources that you use in package manager needs to be updated.

I started to use this operating system as I had mentioned because of its great interface for the benefits of being able to develop and test services in an efficient way, this being favorable and helping me meet those efficiency and performance goals.

What I like the most about this distribution is that it has a great user interface and as a developer it was what caught my attention the most when choosing it, being one of the first distributions used together with CentOS. It is also a very well service-oriented distribution of Linux, making it a great laboratory for scenarios to try out.

The only weakness that I have been able to find is that it needs many dependencies to be able to install any other tool within the operating system, I imagine that this must be for compatibility issues and to ensure the best use

I've been using Debian Linux for over 2 years now and it has never failed me. I'm a Linux fan and have tried many other distributions, but none of them can even come close to the reliability of Debian. It's the best OS out there!

Debian Linux is Debian Linux, and that's just about all it needs to be. There are plenty of other operating systems out there, but the stability and ease of use Debian offers is unbeatable. I would recommend this OS to anyone who values their time.

He probado muchas distribuciones de Linuz y Debian es una de mis favoritas. Es muy sencillo instalarlo, actualizarlo... e instalar nuevas aplicaciones es muy sencillo gracias a los paquetes deb.Es gratuita y prima la seguridad y estabilidad por encima del resto, por lo que no puedo mas que ofrecerla como una de las distribuciones más completas.

Todas las ventajas de Linux (seguridad, estabalidad, sencillez en las actualizaciones,etc) y todo ello gratuito.Como cualquier distribución de Linux, la interfaz es totalmente personalizable, por lo que la puedes dejar a tu gusto.La ventaja de Debian por encima del resto de distribuciones es su estabilidad, por lo que muchísimas otras distribuciones de Linux están basadas en ella.

Pocas pegas le puedo poner a Debian, mas allá que la misma que el resto de distribuciones, hay muchas aplicaciones y softwares que no tienen versión nativa para Linux, lo que en ocasiones puede ser un problema si no hay alternativas.

Un excellent système d'exploitation que j'utilise depuis plusieurs années sans problème particulier.

Debian, c'est l'accès au monde Linux simplement et sans une multitude de logiciels/services préinstallés. L'installation en mode "net-install" permet d'avoir accès à un ordinateur avec un minimum de services actifs et ainsi pouvoir paramétrer un serveur depuis rien sans aucun soucis !

Il faut être un minimum compétent en ligne de commandes et en connaissances du monde de Linux pour paramétrer comme il faut le système.

Debian Linux è una distribuzione di linux solida e stabile, una delle migliori in circolazione. Io la utilizzo da alcuni anni e devo dire che ne sono soddisfatto. Magari gli aggiornamenti alle ultime versioni dei software sono un po' lenti e dilatati nel tempo ma preferisco avere una versione vecchia e perfettamente funzionante piuttosto che una versione nuova ma con qualche bug, E' possibile installarla via internet con un net installer, oppure offline tramite cd, dvd oppure tramite chiavetta usb.

Sicuramente non è una distribuzione per nuovi utenti, è necessaria un po' di esperienza nel mondo linux prima di installarla.

Es buena en general, destacando su seguridad y la no existencia de virus. Existen problemas con el Hardware de distintas marcas.

La facilidad de uso para instalar aplicaciones y paquetes, por otro lado es una de las distribuciones más extendidas. Se aprecia su nivel de seguridad sobre todo a la hora de utilizar Intranet.

Para utilizarlo en todo su potencial es necesario aprender muchos comandos y ejecutarlos por medio de consola. También existen problemas para instlar Hardware tan común cómo el de Scanneres o Impresoras. Aún hay empresas que no tienen versiones para LINUX como por ejemplo Microsoft Office, Corel DRAW! o el paquete de ADOBE.

I started using Debian when I started on Linux and it was a pleasant experience and a lot of learning. It is a distribution where I was able to create multiple services in the company and at the same time manage open source tools.

What I like most about this distribution is that it was the first with a friendly user interface and that the user felt more comfortable using it, it is very stable and well supported by the community.

What I don't like about this is its packaging system that for developers is not very complete and it could be very complex to be able to create a development environment in this distribution

We have a web page running, with a database in MySql, although it is something simple, but it is solving us

it is a good and stable system despite having already been on the market for a long time, we have a page and a database in MySql, we have had few problems despite the time we have been running that page, it is used in our intranet and it is fast and efficient

I understand that they can improve the graphic version, time has passed and people like me who like how things look, it's important

Simple to use, easy to install and very stable

Standard Operating System that works on all types of computers and servers within the organization

Not certified not officially supported by hardware manufacturers

Overall experience has been good and looking forward to use it for more than usual..Better than other environments.

Debain is a better product of linux.Even better than ubuntu when it comes to stability and better updates.

Bug tracking is little less.Updates take a little more time and takes time to update.User interface is not much user friendly.

I have been using debian because Ubuntu was not available for VPS service and it was ready-made for website hosting. I never had any problems with my websites and it has been running swiftly.

It was available VPS configuration. It is as much user friendly on server as Ubuntu on desktop. Fast and has all software necessary.

Once the uptates ruined PHP and I needed help. But I found it quite quickly online.

Instalei S.O Debian por indicação de uma conhecido que utiliza ele... é como disse logo a ssim é um excelente S.O porem somente o Wifi que não funciiona...

Usei o debain por algum tempo,apenas de alguns problemas é um otimo S.O

Infelizmente nos notebooks da Lenovos não funciona o wifi

The user interface is best because it's so easy to use and it is eye appealing and the terminal is the cherry on the cake.

I don't dislike anything about Debian. because it's perfect.

Tra le tante versioni Linux , Debian è uno dei preferiti. La grande quantità di repository e la grande affidabilità del kernel.

La possibilità o difficoltà nel ricompilare per snellire.
