Tips for switching to Debian from Ubuntu?
Tips for switching to Debian from Ubuntu?
Title pretty much says it all. I've been using ubuntu as my daily driver for the last 5 years or so and honestly, I've had a wonderful experience with it.
That said, with the way things are going, I feel like its only a matter of time before Canonical pulls the rug out so I'd like to at least get my feet wet with something other than Ubuntu and Debian seems like the logical choice.
I mainly use my machines for gaming, self hosting, programming, and weird networking projects/automation testing.
I've heard gaming on debian isnt as 'out of the box' as it is with Ubuntu. So I'm hoping somone with more experience can share some tips on what I should be looking out for or point me to some good guides. Thanks yall.
EDIT: I fucking love this community. Thank you all for your replies. I appreciate you taking the time to help me out.

No idea if Ubuntu does some things better for gaming, but I just use the Steam Flatpak (+ the "steam-devices" package for much better controller support) and the Heroic Game Launcher Flatpak. Everything works fine on my end. I'm currently using an AMD card, but will probably switch to an Intel Arc in the near future (since they have better performance for 3d rendering in Blender, and I'm fed up with Nvidia's prices).
