    Debian, because I can just have a computer without needing to fiddle with a million things. I work in tech and don’t want to mess with any more code or configurations if I’m on my own computer. It’s worked for me for 5 years and has worked for others for 30 years.

      Don’t mean to be overly combative here, but how does Debian preclude you from having to fiddle with things? Do you just like all the defaults then?

      I love Debian myself, and I use it for all my personal projects where something needs to run unattended because it’s rock solid, but there are still a lot of defaults that I want to change every time to make it suitable for me. Now admittedly I’m fairly opinionated about these things, but I mean, out of the box the default editor is nano (!). So as a result I created a “fiddlescript” that’s a mile long and that I run on every new installation.
