@thumbsup @mageia 💙 or debian 🤍

By the way debian and ubuntu are definitely not the same beasts. The way Ubuntu takes its packages from the unstable in Debian implies it does not iherit famous Debian qualities and it does not inherit Debian updates and fixes either.

Thumbs Up

@maat @mageia Yes, I was originally going to put Debian and RHEL, but polls only give you four spots and I assumed a lot of people would select Debian if they use Ubuntu anyway. If Debian wins, I can make a follow up poll for people to clarify.
