Switching from Microsoft Windows to Linux is one of the best decision I ever made.

Thank you to the thousands of Debian volunteers. You are amazing people ❤️

    Noob here. My last distro was Zorin (which I liked well enough). Keen to switch to Debian base. Should I jump in and install vanilla Debian or wait for Mint Debian 7? Or should I believe the DistroWatch hype and go for MX?

    Would prefer Xfce environment because I’ll be running it on 8+ yo laptop and and desktop.

      If you’re a noob, what made you go with Debian in the first place?

      I want to be clear, there’s nothing wrong with that, just not the usual path for a new Linux user.

        I liked Zorin (often recommended for users coming from Windows) which is based off Ubuntu which in turn is based off Debian. Not a fan of Snaps, though. I also value stability over blistering performance and bleeding edge features.
