Hi, mostly i use REHL based distros like Centos/Rocky/Oracle for the solutions i develop but it seems its time to leave…

What good server/minimal distro you use ?

Will start to test Debian stable.

    Debian

    Debian 12 Bookworm is their best release ever, and I am seeing a lot of positive opinions about it suddenly. It may be a Ubuntu 16.04 moment.

      Bookworm was the final straw that made me switch to Debian (and linux in general full time). Such a polished OS. And if the release cycle doesn’t suit your workflow its a very smooth change over to one of the many debian-based distros.

        I am on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (since 16.04), and I will absolutely try it. The non free firmware support seems like Debian has become more open minded and pragmatic, and I like that. Ubuntu is safe, but I have become comfortable enough with Linux to step up my game with a more solid distro.

            Have you bothered to research the consensus and what Debian’s new release has? Literally 2 minutes away if you search internet instead of replying. Do not expect spoonfeeding.

              Substantiating your claims isn’t “spoonfeeding”, it’s just common courtesy to reassure others that you aren’t talking completely out of your arse.

      Does Debian let you specify regulatory compliance at install time? Or is it a do it yourself manually situation where you write an Ansible playbook.
