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.

About

Void is a general purpose operating system, based on the monolithic Linux kernel. Its package system allows you to quickly install, update and remove software; software is provided in binary packages or can be built directly from sources with the help of the XBPS source packages collection. It is available for a variety of platforms. Software packages can be built natively or cross compiled through the XBPS source packages collection. Unlike trillions of other existing distros, Void is not a modification of an existing distribution. Void's package manager and build system have been written from scratch. Void Linux supports both the musl and GNU libc implementations, patching incompatible software when necessary and working with upstream developers to improve the correctness and portability of their projects.

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

  • -Cutting edge -XPBS installer is easy to learn as it follows Arch's Pacman commands closely -RunIt init system instead of SystemD. - Can install via Calimares or CMD - Musl or Glibc
  • I used 3-4 years Arc Linux by the way. Then I decided to use Void Linux. It is fast, rolling release and stable.

Cons

  • -No AUR -New distro=less programs -Musl isn't standard in Linux,BSD or Microsoft, it's the future but software programmers need to catch up to the new ways, as it's superior by a LARGE MARGIN.
  • Not famous as much as Arch Linux which deserves more. For that why sometimes you may face lack of documentary but if you have a general Linux knowledge you may overcome all problems.
