I’m planning to put Debian-based operating system onto my Surface Laptop Gen 1, following the guide (linux-surface). Any good Debian-based Linux recommendations? For now I’m considering AntiX (lightweight debian) and normal Debian.
P.S. I’ve installed pure Debian, as everyone suggests. Thanks for advice!
Which features are you looking for beyond what can be done on Debian?
Lightweight and maybe has some “cool features”
Debian is the lightest derivative of Debian
The installer outright gives you the option out of many different desktop environments and use cases and if you don’t like to install a desktop you can install base system debian that’s literally just a terminal environment and nothing else
Maybe Debian with a wm? I like cwm, but there are many to choose from. You can add pretty much any cool feature on top.
