Debian has way less overhead out of the box so in theory it should save a company a decent amount of money. I’m trying to calculate actual numbers and I’m curious if any of you have done any similar calculation.

    Compared to Arch Linux then yeah you’ll save a ton of money almost guaranteed. But something like Windows? Good luck trying to calculate that.

      I don’t really subscribe to Arch or Debian being better or worse than each other. I encounter issues just as frequently on both. Maybe it’s a little harder to do things in Debian because the repositories don’t update as often but the AUR is where a lot of important stuff is and that’s a pain to deal with too.

      Either way it’s better than using Windows.
