No, and also is possible this is due to Debian 13 release plus increment in Lemmy usage in the past years.

I did not notice this before.

I am more around Debian community.

Yes.

Ubuntu 24.04 is equivalent to Debian 13, except Ubuntu 24.04 was released last year.

Every Ubuntu version is based on a copy of Debian Sid, which is the unstable branch.

Eventually, they incorporate Debian patches too but keep some packages in different versions (libpng, the kernel, openssl and similar are the most I remember but they change between releases).

Related to the thing: I like mature and safe transitions, specially if is supposed to run in production.

From my POV, and knowing I already take care if something for new Debian releases, Ubuntu, even in LTS, is the worse what I could wish because they release unreleased and/or unstable software, which did not even pass Debian releases statuses.

I meant in Lemmy I dont see complaints or bugs reported so much about Debian.

I dont usually see many despiste the typical arch linux, fedora or similar “exotic” distro user who used it years ago.

Or maybe someone who suddenly jumped into it.

I use Debian in container images and servers. Almost everything I touch whenever I have the option.

I only use Ubuntu when expectated, required or asked specifically by customer or such.

Ubuntu has issues in every LTS (this time with APT version shipped) because Ubuntu releases are based on Debian Sid (basically unreleased Debian software which they “patch” later including unstable version of tools).

I suffer this in my job every time a Ubuntu LTS is shipped previous to the release of the Debian version equivalent to it (Ubuntu 24.04 is Debian 13 with mixed versions of packages and “patches”) and a customer or a teammate upgrade a container-image or workstation to it…

I even use Debian new versions after either 1 year or the first .1 release.

This is basically what terrorism is.

Ubuntu Pro intensifies with the full support of the tools under a custom license.
