From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is true, but there's still a bit of a gap between the two such as versions and or the existence or lack thereof of some packages here and there, along with default packages and configs. It's why I wouldn't throw a complete novice on a productivity mission at Debian. If they're able to get productive on Ubuntu and learn to use it, the switch to Debian is easier.
