Debian 11 is a simple and reliable distro that just helps you to make the work done. You won’t get any surprise with it - neither negative nor positive. This LTS release is supported for 5 years. So, you can install it and just focus on your work. Also, you need to have some Linux experience to install and configure Debian 11. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On the other hand, the software in Debian is always a bit older than it should be. You can overcome this obstacle with Flatpak or Snap apps. But this will not give the experience of native apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The available versions of software can be a little older than other distros. This happens because the stable version does several checks and has strict criteria. The outcome is it is very hard (you need to try) to break your system by installing wrong .deb packages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
