Why Ubuntu and not Debian?
Dear Trisuellians,
thanks for your activism.
So Trisquel is Ubuntu based and includes only free software (under FSF
license) software and drivers?
Why Ubuntu and not Debian?
Actually i am pretty happy with almost all my Debian 9 and 10 installations.
(Debian 10 had a little (again) Network Manager problem and thus was not
able to connect to Wifi...

but that could also have been caused by me only installing mate-core and
not mate-full, the less software the better)
just askin'
software minimalism is key to a secure and stable system
Tor bundle has it's own update process, and now it's broken X-D
(won't start anymore on Trisquel 8 have no idea why...)
Please check the archives. The base of Trisquel has been discussed many times before.
gNewSense is a FSF endorsed distro that is based on Debian. It is currently being developed actively again for the first time in years. It's website is here:
Personally I don't really get the Ubuntu hype. I much prefer Debian as well though Trisquel is an exception to that rule.
