  • I haven’t watched the video. I’ve used Debian as my operating system of choice for over 25 years.

    Debian is intended to be Free, it goes to great lengths to achieve this. Many of the popular distributions are based on it as a result.

    It has the option to use non-free components like firmware blobs and weird vendor encumbered video drivers.

    In addition, Debian runs on a large collection of different hardware platforms and as such is supported across more devices than many other alternatives.

    If you run bleeding edge hardware, you have the option of running bleeding edge software within the Debian framework. It comes in flavours: stable, testing and unstable specifically to cater to different requirements.

    Pick what you need depending on your use case.
