be> I use Debian and Gentoo. Looking forward to meaningful discussion.

I've heard that Debian is more "stable" than Ubuntu, but what is meant by
that? I haven't had any issues with Ubuntu crashing, and I've used what feels
like a ton of software with it.

I'm interested in Debian because I'm assuming it's lighter and faster than
Ubuntu, but I'm reluctant because I'm concerned about compatibility when I
move files from an Ubuntu machine to a Debian one. Should that be a concern?
