I don't get why anybody uses Ubuntu. Just use Debian. It's basically more stable and functional Ubuntu, but without snaps and you don't need an entire distro branch for different DEs.
Because it's a popular distro. Because when you look for “how to X in linux”, there's a 90% chance the response will be about Ubuntu. Because your workplace said so. The list goes on.
Ubuntu is Debian with lipstick so that all still applies
Yeah but everything that I named would say Ubutnu. That's important. Until you know more, you'll already be using Ubuntu. That's why “anybody uses Ubuntu”.
