Title is quite self-explanatory, reason I wonder is because every now and then I think to myself “maybe distro X is good, maybe I should try it at some point”, but then I think a bit more and realise it kind of doesn’t make a difference - the only thing I feel kinda matters is rolling vs non-rolling release patterns.
My guiding principles when choosing distro are that I run arch on my desktop because it’s what I’m used to (and AUR is nice to have), and Debian on servers because some people said it’s good and I the non-rolling release gives me peace of mind that I don’t have to update very often. But I could switch both of these out and I really don’t think it would make a difference at all.
Honest question, why add headless? Who used a server with a gui?
Its my first server, and I’m not a network admin. Guess I’m not fluent in the lingo.
I wasn’t being rude, genuinely asking! :)
I also don’t know and see some people use it.
I wonder if having a terminal keyboard thing plugged it counts as non headless
Specificity
Feels like saying I drive a car with wheels, the alternative is possible but no one does that.
