\u25b8Unmatched support:<\/em><\/strong> Mail sent to mailing lists is often answered in fifteen minutes (or less), free of charge, and by the people who developed it. Compare this to typical phone support: hours spent on the phone, paying money, only to have someone who doesn’t know the system well enough to understand your question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8It is one of the most stable Operating Systems today.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8<\/em><\/strong>The Kernel:<\/strong><\/em> Can be configured by anyone who knows how to do it. (The kernel is the core of the operating system.) This may be useful, for example, to optimize Linux performance with a particular brand of processor or CPU. This cannot be done in Windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8Incredible amount of software<\/em><\/strong>: Debian comes with more than 59,000 different pieces of software. Every bit of these is free. If you have proprietary software that runs under GNU \/ Linux or GNU \/ kFreeBSD, you can use it (in fact, there may even be an installer in Debian that will automatically install and configure everything for you).<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8<\/em><\/strong>Easy updates<\/strong><\/em>:<\/em><\/strong> Upgrading to a new version of Debian is very easy thanks to our packaging system. You just have to run apt update; apt full-upgrade<\/strong> and can be upgraded from a CD in minutes or configure apt to use one of three hundred Debian mirrors and upgrade from the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8Good system security:<\/em><\/strong> Debian and the free software community are very sensitive to ensuring that security bug fixes hit the distribution quickly. Fixed packages are usually made available within a few days. The availability of the source code allows security in Debian to be openly evaluated, which prevents poor security models from being implemented. Furthermore, most free software projects have third-party review systems, which, as a first step, prevent potential security problems from entering the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, Debian is not perfect and these are some of the causes of these problems:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8<\/em><\/strong>A prior knowledge: <\/strong><\/em>Of Linux is needed to be able to use the Operating System comfortably. Since to configure this system needs a minimum of knowledge to do it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8<\/em><\/strong>Not all hardware is supported<\/strong>: <\/em>Also hardware that depends on complex driver software, which the manufacturer only distributes for Windows platforms (for example WinModems or WiFi cards in laptops). However, in most cases, equivalent hardware is available that works with Debian. Some devices are not supported because the vendor decided not to make the specifications available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8Using Debian is awkward for Windows users, since most Debian applications are made through the command shell.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25b8Long Time:<\/em><\/strong> The time between releases of stable versions is long. For example, almost three years passed between the release of Debian 3.0 and Debian 3.1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Advantages of Debian We have to take into account that Debian is composed of many characteristics and each of these can favor us or the opposite of this so here we will give you a little help to facilitate this topic with the following advantages: \u25b8It is maintained by its users: If something needs to […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":182,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,3],"tags":[51,39],"class_list":["post-179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-debian","category-linux","tag-debian","tag-guide"],"yoast_head":"\nDebian disadvantages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
