    My main home server runs Ubuntu - I installed it 15-20 years ago and it’s grown into a monster. I’ve been slowly documenting everything so I can reinstall with Debian. Have to up the priority of that project.

      Debian is so nice as a server OS. It’s also a great alternative for WSL if you’re forced to use a Windows computer.

        I already run Debian on my desktop and 3 other small servers. I just haven’t moved over my main one yet because of the complexity, and procrastination.

      This works much better if you document into an Ansible playbook. Although some tasks will probably have to be adjusted between the distros.
