server that runs the allstar/echolink on the repeater is CentOS. app_rpt folks did come up with a newer version so to speak built on Debian. my home box been using Debian LXDE. I like Debian for the stability. packages might be a touch older then say mint/ubuntu but man is it stable. Most of my linux exp. has been with Debian so I guess for me its a comfort thing.
I AM THE VOICE OF THE VOICELESS!
Actually, Ubuntu and Mint are Debian based, so some packages in Debian might be updated a bit sooner. I never really looked into how the package flow goes, to be honest, and I develop software haha.
Anyway, as far as I'm concerned, there is no wrong when it comes to Linux
BTW Debian was the only flavor of Linux I could get to install on some old HP servers I inherited from a radio station in New Orleans after Katrina. Everything else bombed trying to install on the big RAID array, but Debian happily installed and ran just fine. It's a good O/S. IMO Ubuntu is too dumbed down now. Great for the average user who needs user-friendliness and for things to just work but not get into the bowels of things, but not for someone who likes to tinker around with stuff. I spend a lot of time in a terminal window.
