Thanks.
pleas do some more research. it is Personal choice:
for a Stable and Secure, with no problems, everyday computer use, use Debian
for experimental plunking around you can use Ubuntu or something else.

Personally, I have several computers. on Most of them I use Debian

I do like to explore options and what the others are doing, so on a
couple I play.
those are sacrificial, if it breaks I just reinstall...

Isn't that enough? I guess I'd say the policy of Debian is that it
works. Personally, I had used Linux off and on in the 1990s but there
were issues. I was otherwise a Unix user in school and work, mostly
Sun's Solaris but also Digital and HP and some others I don't remember
any more.
A friend and colleague recommended Debian around late '90s and I
installed Debian, 2.0 Hamm I think. It just worked, as in I ran
the same
installation on my ever morphing desktop computer for almost a decade
until I made the switch to 64-bit. I guess that "new" 64-bit
installation is now over a decade old then. Updates work and it does't
barf when I change hardware.
For sure I have other computers these days and my desktop alone has
Windows 10 and Arch Linux in addition to Debian. But mostly I use
the desktop and the Debian on it.
