Debian, please choose one and > deprecate the others. Debian is all about multiple choices. Debian tries to include everything that meets the DFSG, from choice of init system, filesystems, servers, to desktop. Debian is inclusive. Choice reduces happiness: https://www.ted.com/talks/dan_gilbert_asks_why_are_we_happy For enhanced new-user happiness, other distributions provide more curated selections. Once users have become accustomed to a curated subset, the breadth and flexibility of Debian makes it easy to reproduce a selection found in a more limited distribution. > I patiently await your hate mail. You did not mention systemd; no hate mail for you! ;-) Kind regards, -- Ben Caradoc-Davies <ben@transient.nz> Director Transient Software Limited <https://transient.nz/> New Zealand
