Re: Accessible Distros for a beginner?

I've used several distros since about 2006, some more than once. Debian is a very good one, as you say, and it has very good documentation.  I had some weird problems with it after upgrading to stretch on my old machine, and had them again when I tried out buster last fall.  Slint is the only one I've tried on this machine.  I like that it booted up with speech by default, I found it fairly easy to partition the drive as I wanted to, and I like the tools it has for using emacspeak and switching among speech outputs.  That said, Debian also certainly deserves serious consideration, and its attention to accessibility is one reason.

Why not just using Debian? IMHO this is still the most accessible distro with a large community and a active team who cares about accessibility. And for a beginner its not more difficult to learn how Debian is working then learning to use another distro.

For me Debian is still the best and I wonder why this is not the case for other users? Why do you prefere other distros?
