They all seems to have a quality work behind them, they also seems to get good reviews. This post is intented to introduce interesting a good debian's distros such as, for example:
grml!

https://grml.org/

It's a specialist "live" system rather than something you install but no less awesome for it.
Now I know grml, and have a good option to use as a tool liveusb.

Terms like quality, the best, the biggest, the greatest, n° 1, indispensable, must have, etc... are vague terms which say nothing meaningful.

That's politicians', corporations', "celebrities'", media, etc... B.S. language.

I'm sure you can do better than that. :wink:

BunsenLabs is a nice little distro -- easy-to-install, comes with Openbox, runs well on my lame test machine. That's the only "Debian-based distro" I have installed on a computer at this time; for "real" installations, I prefer Debian, which always seems to work out better for me over the long run than anything based on Debian.

I like having MX and GParted Live available on flash drives for live sessions. antiX is pretty good for that, too. Recently found out about Grml -- playing around with that in a live session on another computer right now; sources point to Testing, comes with Fluxbox. I like Grml because it doesn't come with a bunch of fluff that I don't want/need.

Best Debian based distro: Debian ! Don't see why there is any question regarding good Debian based distros. You want a Debian based distro then install Debian.

I have all these distros...absolutely the best distros. Just the best...they're huge. And we have good people working on them; the best people. China has a distro--what's it called? Depin? Yes, Depin. Don't get me wrong, I love the Chinese people, they're good people, but Depin is a Chinese hoax--it doesn't exist. Doesn't exist at all. The Chinese are manipulating the Distrowatch ratings! Yes they are. They are hard-working distro developers, I love them, but I will bring back distros to America!

I use my own distros--yes, only my own. I write all the code, it's the best code. The best! I write the code right here in my room in the Tower. All those other workers here you see here...ignore them. They are just publishing my code. I'm issuing an executive order that will freeze any foreign distros from coming to our great country until they undergo extreme vetting.
