About

Debian is a free, open-source Linux operating system developed and maintained by a global community of volunteers. The distribution provides a stable and customizable computing environment for desktop computers, laptops, servers, cloud infrastructure, and embedded systems. Debian includes more than 70,000 software packages covering productivity applications, programming tools, databases, web servers, networking utilities, and system administration. Its Advanced Package Tool (APT) simplifies software installation, dependency management, security updates, and system upgrades. Users can choose from desktop environments such as GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, Cinnamon, MATE, and LXQt or configure lightweight systems without a graphical interface. Debian supports multiple hardware architectures and offers Stable, Testing, and Unstable development branches to accommodate different requirements for reliability and software availability.

About

PLD is a free, RPM-based Linux distribution, created in 1998, aimed at the more advanced users and administrators, who accept the tradeoffs of using a system, that might require manual tweaking in exchange for much flexibility. Simultaneous availability for a wide variety of architectures and a non-conservative approach to RPM usage provides our users with a consistent environment on almost all available architectures.

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.
