Ubuntu means “a quality that includes the essential human virtues; compassion and humanity.” It is based on Debian and comes with a lot of preinstalled software. It is perhaps the most beginner-friendly Linux distro carefully keeping in mind the various Windows users who eventually want to migrate to Linux.
