Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

Debian, or Ubuntu?

They're not the same .. thankfully.

You shared a link to a Ubuntu domain.

After discussion with the rest of the Debian GNOME team, we decided to target GNOME 48 for Debian 13 “Trixie”. Our goal is to get GNOME 48 RC 20 in before Debian’s Transition Freeze 20 and 48.1 in before Debian’s Hard Freeze.

It's an Ubuntu developer sharing the outcome of a discussion that they were party to.

That's a very useful quote that @that_leaflet@lemmy.world might have included in their original post.
