Debian vs Talos: What are the differences?
Debian: The Universal Operating System. Debian systems currently use the Linux kernel or the FreeBSD kernel. Linux is a piece of software started by Linus Torvalds and supported by thousands of programmers worldwide. FreeBSD is an operating system including a kernel and other software; Talos: A modern Linux distribution for Kubernetes. You can imagine Talos as a container image, in that it is immutable and built with a single purpose in mind. In this case, that purpose is Kubernetes. Talos tightly integrates with Kubernetes, and is not meant to be a general use Linux distribution.
Debian and Talos can be categorized as "Operating Systems" tools.
Talos is an open source tool with 1.23K GitHub stars and 55 GitHub forks. Here's a link to Talos's open source repository on GitHub.
