Opinion Debian vs Ubuntu server in relation of support duration and security
by danjde from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XNNJ)
Hi there,
sorry, i know the topic will have been discussed millions of times but i would like to focus on the two issues above: support duration and security.
I'm an sysadmin and for years I've installed only Debian.On which I can not say anything negative, indeed!
Anyway, migrating Debian every 3/4 years becomes more and more complex, perhaps age!
So I'm thinking of using Ubuntu LTS instead of Debian, more than anything for the longer duration of the support of LTS releases.
In terms of safety I have not much experience in Ubuntu LTS, some of you manages Ubuntu LTS server? How do you find it?
Many thanks!
