Originally posted by debianxfce View PostDebian has more packages available to use than Solus and doesn't have a forked gnome-shell, budgie, which is bad because I think everything other than XFCE is a memory hog.
My wife's laptop doesn't have this issue, but she and I had issues with how it functions and how I would use it. I can go into specifics but I don't want to ramble on.

Personally, I mostly-prefer XFCE to GNOME-Xorg. Thunar's a little unstable when dealing with ejected discs or flakey USB drive connections sometimes, but it's alright otherwise.
Back on the original topic: I'm glad to see Debian 9 coming along so well. I doubt it'll displace Arch on my laptops, but it'll make a nice upgrade for my off-net desktop. ^_^
