     @itsfoss @sebsch Over time, I question using #Ubuntu over #Debian.

     Not sure I’ll use either on my next #Linux build, but #Debian is certainly looking like a more attractive option rn.

     @sebsch Debian would work too. 🙌

     I doubt with these specs any Ubuntu derivat is fitting.
     There are distributions out there with less scripting in runtime. One could use Debian for example.
