Bazzite, Debian, Linux Mint…Arch… Ubuntu…
That’s five I could think of off top of my head.
I got 50% right, okay!
You’ve got two so far.
Can you name 10 base/independent distros?
Debian, OpenSUSE, Fedora, Arch, GuixSD, NixOS, Slack, Gentoo, LFS, and I want to say… Knoppix?
Knoppix is a fun one :) Didn’t know it was independent.
It’s been a long time, so I could be misremembering.
If that’s the case, then Tiny Core or Damn Small to replace it.
spoiler
Debian, Arch, Fedora, OpenSUSE, NixOS, Slackware, AerynOS, Alpine, Gentoo, LFS
Once you get to Ubuntu, just continue down that rabbit hole of flavors. Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Bananafanafubuntu, etc…

Uh, I guess he was thinking in terms of distros using .DEB packages via APT. Ubuntu, Kali, Debian, and so many alone use DEB packages.
Tails, Devuan, Mobian, Kali, Debianissimo, Armbian, Proxmox, Qubes, Raspbian and finally…Debian
Mint, Ubuntu, Kali, Arch, Graphene, Nyx, AmogOS (weird but still a distro), Neon, Manjaro, OPENsuse. So I know loads I guess
Also What’s wrong with Debian.
There’s so little wrong with debian that 80% of distros ARE Debian.
Nothing except that the packages are far too old at least in stable, which is not an issue unless you are making your own biased distro tier list. The joke about Debian was that every Debian/Ubuntu based distro is just Debian.
The joke is that most distros are based on Debian.
Where is this movie from?
The Pianist
Should’ve been this meme format
Should be…
You’re a Linux user, name every distro…
Debian, Arch, Fedora.
Those aren’t even close to all.
Here’s a couple more i can think of right now (following your pattern of only base distros):
LFS, Chimera, AerynOS, Alpine, Gentoo, Guix, NixOS, Slackware
Void
Fedora, red hat Linux, bazzite, secureblue, rocky Linux, alma Linux, bluefin, nobara, aurora, ultramarine
Congrats for repeating someone else’s joke louder
It is really just about the last panel, but that didn’t came without the other three, so…
Im afraid someone else also posted just that panel hours before you.
Theres no way to win here, accept that today you repeated the joke in a reply and do better tomorrow. We all do it when commenting eventually.
There’s two variants of Debian: Debian, and “damn, this distro is not as flexible as I’d like, I guess I should have just installed Debian in the first place”.
Yeah, that, ubuntu. Poor choice on my part.
“Don’t shoot! I’m a TempleOS user!”
guards throw down their weapons and kneel
“Don’t shoot! I’m a puppy linux user!”
guards are overcome by cuteness
Fedora, red hat Linux, bazzite, secureblue, rocky Linux, alma Linux, bluefin, nobara, aurora, ultramarine
If you don’t like Debian, go fork yourself.
You’re being a bit unstable right now.
Apologies, friend. It was all mint in good fun.
That’s only one
There are many Debian based distros, just all the Ubuntu flavors is enough
Those are based on Debian. Not Debian. If you ask for a debian and I give you pop_os, you’d probably not like it.
And flavours are flavours, not distro. It’s the same distro, just different settings
The term I use is “Debian family”, “Red Hat family”, etc.
Ok guys. This is the comment chain. Let’s do it. 🍿🗡️⚔️🤺
Then, if we are to follow that logic of excluding derivatives, then we get NixOS, Arch, LFS, TinyCore Linux, Gentoo, Debian (of course!) and… I give up; what else is out there?
And I use Debian, just to put it on record.
Oh I don’t mean derivatives doesn’t count. As their own. I mean when saying “debian” you don’t say “Ubuntu”. Just say both
what else is out there?

Void, Solus, Exherbo, Suse, Fedora…
The saddest part on your comment was that Suse was my first distro and it did not register in my mind. As for Fedore, althoug I still insist calling it Red Hat.
I don’t know what sarcasm is anymore.
NO U
Well you see ubuntu is the same as debian so you shouldn’t use debian because of canonicals snaps, stance on ai, and advertising in the terminal.
This reads as sarcasm but is generally valid points…? I guess that explains why people downvoted it
It’s valid against ubuntu, but I don’t see why it would touch debian users?
I think maybe you meant “should use Debian”?
I see that reading now.
you think
Well you see ubuntu is the same as debian so you shouldn’t use debian either, because debian also has canonical’s snaps, stance on ai, and advertising in the terminal.
would work?
I’m not sure whether you really mean Debian has all those issues or if it’s sarcasm, but otherwise it’s clearer you’re not recommending Debian
Debian does not have snaps (I suppose you could install snappy, but that is the case for most distributions).
Debian also doesn’t have canonical ads in its command outputs.
And debian does nor allow LLM contributions to all its related stuff, i.e. debian packaging, software projects, websites, docs, and communication.
Generally debian is pretty ai-negative where ubuntu is very ai-positive.So this is continuing the sarcasm because obviously it’s all clearly wrong.
There is only 1 distro. And it’s Hannah Montana!
Arch is also a valid answer, btw.
