More packages available than in Debian? Somebody has been drinking the Kool-Aid. If you choose a distro that promises to be easy and user-friendly, you might end up with something that isn't much better than Windoze and the rotten Apple. You know, when I first got into Linux (15+ years ago?), I tried out more distros than I can remember; at least 20 or 30. Knoppix, PC Linux, all the 'buntus, Q4OS, Kali Linux, ExeGNU Linux, Slackware and several variants, Puppy Linux, Zen Linux. I still try out new distros now and again, because you never know, and it's good to have options. So I wouldn't discourage anybody from trying out new things, but don't believe everything you read or hear. Burn some live discs. Try them all, if you can afford to spend a little money on CDs and DVDs (and you can even put them on flash drives!).
