Debian and Ubuntu are two of the biggest and hottest Linux distros of all time. While Ubuntu and Debian are closely related, the kind of experience you get out of them is very different.
In one corner, we have Debian, the rock-solid, community-driven distro known for its stability and security. And in the other corner, we have Ubuntu, the user-friendly, innovation-driven distro that has taken the world by storm.
One chooses a stock desktop while the other rocks a heavily customized UI and the differences go on.
But with the release of Debian 12, Bookworm, Debian really ups its game and has become more relevant than ever before. Debian 12 is a huge update that brings a modern desktop, the latest features, and overhauls its entire package repository. And these things make Debian 12 an attractive choice.
But the question is, is it more attractive than Ubuntu 22.04 LTS?
So in this video, we’ll do a deep dive with Debian 12 and Ubuntu 22.04 and see which of these two is better, which of these two has faster performance, we’ll compare the Stability, software choice, the gaming experience and many more aspects of these 2 distros and see how are they different from each other, and finally see, which of these two is the smarter choice for 2023 and beyond.

Linux Tex has the hottest videos of all time as well 😀
THis would look and work GREAT with the POP shell installed for the AUTO- TILING effect of pop os… but then that would defeat the purpose of gnome workspaces etc..
I'd like to take your course– but I'm 67 nowand stuff like that just doesn't "STICK" to me like it use to– I can understand it ok- but can't RETAIN it– have to look it up freshly ever time.. .
I think it looks very good.. and would LIKE to use it– but I've tried- and just can NOT. It gets in my way-
and with only one eye now-the sliding workspaces back and forth fast likethat- gives me motion sickness just looking at it.. I can SEE how it would be good and efficient- but can't make it work that way. Right now I use Debian based NEPTUNE- with BISMUTH on kde- for tiling– and it wokrs GREAT for me.. I can't deal with all these "work spaces"– whch to me is a waste- since it's nothing but TABS– just BIGGER.. I wanted to use it- but it just won't let me.Just switched from zorin to debian 12, and it is better
Ubuntu for new user, Debian for exp user 😁
whats going on @ 1:13 it looks like Ubuntu is burning bag of 💩😂
Now , that's a solid video !
If you are a new Linux Mint is the way to go, but if you want to run Debian version of Mint you can now do so with LMDE 6, which is debian 12 bookworm, it is in beta 2 but is very stable so far and it is the Debian version. I switched over due to the parent company like RedHat and Canonical they are based on companies, you never know when they might stop providing releases, Redhat doesn't provide the code any longer so Centos is dead. Alma and Rocky Linux will provide support instead, but I am not a fan of RPM, I prefer debian and it is FOSS. Hopefully Mint will see the writing on the wall and UN-hitch from Ubuntu.
6:59 "Now hear me out, let's not freak out because I use the word 'unstable' here.." (Funny Indian accent). Hahaha
I have Ubuntu, I like GNOME. But my next setup will be FreeBSD and xfce, I dont know about secondary OS, probably Proxmox with Win7 or Win10
Still prefer xfce on Debian 12. Mostly because it is what I am used to.
It is better Debian 12 than Ubuntu, more stability of Os.
I'm a long time Ubuntu user, but I'm really tempted to make the move to Debian 12.
Whats video editor use you?
switch from what to where. you can get all same both of them just install
Gamepass is awesome value for PC gaming but I don't think it works on linux?
I like Ubuntu but use Debian cause of Snap.
Just switched from Ubuntu 22.04 to Debian 12 on my primary system and not thinking of going back. I can now see how much time I’ve been waisting waiting for Snaps to start up even on NVMe lol
when you are new to linux ubuntu is best distro compare to other linux distro's. very user friendly GUI
I'm completly deasagree. Ubuntu is more an more bug. Firefox in snap is a nightmare (like a lot of snap). A distribution is not a wallpaper. Ubuntu is average in LTS version. So if you use a lot applications or hardware it is not the right one. Ubuntu is based on Debian sid. If you prefer to have latest software, change to Debian sid. You will get the same reliability than Ubuntu. I red some comments : ubuntu is better for newbies ? Not, you start Ubuntu and no more browser : it disapeared ! How the newbie fix it ?
im on debian 12 with audio line input works but static ever so often with a less clear sound, this does not happen when im in windows, just curious if anyone has this issue.
Great video. Longtime Ubuntu user here and just recently switched to Debian 12. So far, loving it 🙂
I tried Ubuntu and it wasnt for me. It isnt vanilla expirience, there was a bug in install process, and all this custom features dont Work smoothly..so as a newcomer i ended up on debian12.. not one single error or bug notification occured. New packages/features results with problems, even kernel brakage.. to each his own.. but expecting the newest features and stability is silly. Most People dosent know Better so they use the first distro they see online..
If there is GNOME for Debian what is the point of using Ubuntu?
After 14 years of using Kubuntu I jumped to Debian 12. Kubuntu was and is great. I have NO complaints about it. But in light of what IBM/RH and Canonical have in store for Linux I decided to switch to Debian 12 running Plasma 5.27.5 on top of BTRFS, exactly the way I ran Kubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Bookworm is significantly faster than Kubuntu on my hardware. Typeical boot to desktop times on Kubuntu were 15 seconds. For Debian 12 the time is 10 secs. Apps pop to the screen faster.
I do not expect trouble with BTRFS because I ran it on Kubuntu since 2016 with zero issues.
All in all, I am very pleased with Bookworm.
I thank Canonical for all the fish, but the net is GPL and when they stop abiding by the GPL then I'm finished with them and the rest of the law breakers.
The fingerprint login works not just while logging in, it works on cli while sudo'ing. Another reason why I love Debian.
Absolutely wonderful video, after watch Chris Titus Tech ramble on about Ubuntu being in the "Devil" (his bad category) and putting Debian (Not 12 Bookworm, regular Deb on top) while dismissing Kali as a pointless distro….I found this much more factual. Thank you, liked and subbed!
debian + xfce = peak 😊
I upgraded to Ubuntu 23.04 from 22.04 LTS on my chrome book and after three updates the sound starling acting up and defaulting to dummy output. Now after a year with 22.04 I never had an issue. I felt that 22.04 LTS was stable even on a chrome book. So after troubleshooting the sound I downgraded back to 22.04 and the sound works again. 23.04 Truly is unstable for the chrome book in. My experience. I always liked the LTS versions of Ubuntu 😊
Still Ubuntu is better for new users.

Enjoyed the comparison.
And your comparison makes low sense; you are comparing a distribution tailored specifically for beginners (Ubuntu) to a distribution that is tailored for experts. Then you focus mainly on tiny details like the panel or the installer during your review. Debian being better performance-wise – and still both get the point? Whatever…
At some point you mention Xubuntu to use as light system. XFCE is great, I use it myself, but xubuntu is really not good. Kubuntu is much better, even performance-wise. Or just use debian and KDE or XFCE. Or Linux Mint. That is also great for older pcs. I also love and use OpenSUSE, although that would end up as hard to use in comparison…
Debian is better 🙂
thanks for the video
your videos are visually astuning, but your accent is quite difficult for me to understand… sorry! and not only your accent, I feel sometimes you talk really quick, which makes it harder to understand
After 3 weeks experiment on SBC Orangepi 5b, Ubuntu is hand-down easier for a Linux newbie like me. I don't even read Ubuntu manual and I can immediately navigate its menu and launch app easily from Windows background. Debian is harder to configure for my SBC and after frustration, I could not stand it anymore and abandon it.
I think both ubuntu 22.04 and debain are good. However the flavors of ubuntu are better than Debian for laptops
Please tell me which editor you use!
I've used Ubuntu only for over 7 years…I just changed my desktop PC to Debian12. I have been wanting new Gnome. All my games on steam still work. Only problem i have now is i cannot get OpenVPN3 client to install. I was told because it relies on older libs than Debian uses. Other than that i LOVE deb12. Been using it for about 2 weeks.
GNOME is really a pain – the amount of extensions needed to accomplish what KDE Plasma has built-in, is insane.
I wish there were more tiling WM with usable default settings.
You can use flatpacks on either.
Watching this on Ubuntu 20.04. I want to upgrade to 22.04. But since there is 2 years of support left, I will stick to this one. I really love the experience here. Especially Multi-tasking. It's so good. I will use Ubuntu forever.
I think debian should change its release schedule. It gets stuck in older versions, which is not for those desktop users who always want to use the latest and greatest apps. With the current release model debian is a server-centric distro, where stability and reliability matter most.
