About

Debian is distributed freely over Internet. This page has options for installing Debian Stable. If you are interested in Testing or Unstable, visit our releases page. Many of the vendors sell the distribution for less than US$5 plus shipping (check their web page to see if they ship internationally). You can try Debian by booting a live system from a CD, DVD or USB key without installing any files to the computer. When you are ready, you can run the included installer (starting from Debian 10 Buster, this is the end-user-friendly Calamares Installer). Provided the images meet your size, language, and package selection requirements, this method may be suitable for you. Read more information about this method to help you decide.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Debian is one of the most stable Linux distributions, making it ideal for production environments and long-term use. Extensive testing ensures minimal bugs and high uptime. Over 59,000 packages are available, covering almost every use case. Includes both stable and backports repositories for additional flexibility. Supports a wide range of hardware, including older systems and the latest devices. Kernel 6.1 brings better hardware support for modern peripherals. Debian allows deep customization, from lightweight server configurations to full-fledged desktop environments. Multiple desktop environments are officially supported, including GNOME, KDE, XFCE, and more.
  • Nothing at all. Just stay clear of this distribution. Crashes constantly and also doesn't boot on some computers.
  • Installing: While installing, you have multiple advanced choices, you can choose a GUI installer or a text-based one. DEs: Debian supports a lot of DEs, including, but not limited to: KDE Plasma, GNOME, Xfce...

Cons

  • Debian prioritizes stability over cutting-edge software, which means it may lag behind in offering the latest versions of applications. Users who need bleeding-edge software might need to use backports or compile from source. Debian adheres strictly to free software principles, which may require additional setup for proprietary drivers (e.g., NVIDIA GPU drivers) or non-free codecs. Configuring advanced features, especially for servers or networking, may require deeper Linux knowledge.
  • The constant crashing takes it away for me. Just use a different OS.
  • I haven't found any issues that affect me in any way.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - Customization of Fedora - Supports most of the DEs you can think of (KDE, Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce, etc.)

Cons

  • Default mirrors are slow. In Brazil, Fedora defaults for the C3SL servers, which for me are quite slow, so I have to add the Red Hat servers in the U.S.
