You says packages updates are first announced in Debian, then in Ubuntu ?
I'm not going to use GUI only text console.
Yes. Text console makes no difference. All use the same repository servers.
Debian project people build the packages, fix the main bugs.
* debian people get updates.
Ubuntu people wait for the fixes, download the Debian packages, apply
some patches to integrate some stuff with their GUI and rebuild.
* ubuntu users get updates

I'm thinking to install Debian or Ubuntu server but what do you
suggest me ?
Up to you. Ubuntu is a child OS built on top of Debian.
From the console they are almost identical.
I find the delay in package updates annoying in Ubuntu, particularly
