Why Ubuntu Server? What about Debian as a server?
Interesting question. From that perspective someone could ask „Why not windows Server?“
Because ubuntu server is a frequently used distro that has its own issues and support is generally appreciated by people. As I wrote, there is an active subreddit which this is supposed to be a mirror of.
Feel free to make a debian server community. Or have I missed your point?
From my perspective and experience: Debian was always up to date with security fixes but rather late with feature / package updates. Compared to Ubuntu, it is a rather conservative approach. But nowadays when running applications with Docker, this shouldn't be much of a hassle anywhere. Containers are the great equaliser on any host.
