@SteveTux Yep, it's what's confusing me.

I'm thinking similarly that Ubuntu is a Flavor of Debian. But on the other hand, it's also a Distro be itself and have its own Flavors.

DE is Desktop Environment. In the early days, it was a heated battle between Gnome and KDE, and Flavors came out one after another based on those two.

I guess when Ubuntu came to the picture with their Kubuntu, Lubuntu, flavors, the importance of DE and Flavors eventually was forgotten. Now it's all about the Distro.

But we should probably archive these info before it's forgotten. Unfortunately, I'm not sure myself anymore how all of these terminologies were originally defined. 😅😅
