1.) I am talking about how Debian sucks big stinky cheesy donkey balls.
2.) There are hundreds of Linux distributions. Sure Debian has a big branch on the tree, but giving one branch more significance over the others at this point is asinine. Many have a significant technical advantage over them now. Essentially making Debian an obsolete headache that only enterprise dinasours want to deal with, because they fear anything new and different. Due to system admins advanced age and being close to retirement.
3.) My sources for the argument that the vast majority of Linux users hate Debian can be found in pretty much any communications channel for projects that aren't Debian. Start by asking around. Trust me it won't be that hard to find people who will go in great lengths as to why Debian based distros suck balls.
4.) We all have our own personal reasons to hate Debian based distros. Mine is that the Debian package manager (apt) is pure and utter horseshit. It leads to pure dependency hell once you start adding more 3rd party repositories to apt. That many times can not be resolved. It deserves to die a slow painful death for the many headaches and pure rage it has caused me over the past 15 years.
5.) whoeverlovesDigit brings up a very excellent point about SystemD. To be honest it is the elephant in the room for me that I knew about, but chose to ignore, because I have been using it for so long. However the gay joke about it kind of rubbed me the wrong way since I do not play the cock flute. So I looked at the website link he provided and dived deeper into it today. I thought it was just bloated, slow, and sometimes a pain in the ass to deal with, but not a fucking STD on my Linux computers. I had no idea that it was such a privacy and security nightmare!
Now I have to start another Linux journey in my limited spare time to figure out a suitable replacement for all the SystemD based distros that I have been used to over the years. I've used Void and Parabola in the past, but I have been flirting with the idea of Alpine, or Guix lately. We shall see where this journey takes me. It will take time before I can learn and practice enough with an alternative since I am going to be starting over from a level 1 perspective. However, I'm determined to get off the SystemD crack and get clean for good now.
whoeverlovesDigit do you have any recommendations for non-systemd Linux alternatives that I should distrohop to and explore in a VM?
If you do, why do you suggest that I try them?
I would love to hear your input on this subject matter. Also going straight for the systemd argument was a boss level move. Did not think you were going straight for the drop kick that has no defense. lol
