What’s Debian based on again? I think it was some earlier variant of Ubuntu

    Then they don’t need to use Debian. There are plenty of user friendly options. Debians installer is kind of bad but that doesn’t mean Debian is bad.

      Why debian installer is bad? Literaly press okay to almost everything and you got installed

          Why would you want to disable root?

          Remote root login is disabled by default, local root disabeling is useless anyway, as when you have acdess to the physical system you can break it open anyway.

              It’s a better way, but not fool proof. I always keep root available for console login. (Saves booting from external media when there is an issue) For the rest, sudo is perfect though, but it doesn’t replace root login in 100% of the situations.

      What is bad about it? It’s as fool proof as the RedHat installer, unless you go to the expert text mode one. (And even that is pretty straight forward)
