From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Debian, I use one Gnome extension but could easily do without it. All the defaults are fine if you just want to sit down and browse, edit media, create documents or write code.
I'm very confused about what OP considers customization. My only experience has been setting up my home server so far, so maybe I'll be compelled to do more "customizing" when I make the switch on my PCs.
Does installing a GUI on Ubuntu Server already break that rule? Or is it a success because it's only software? It's definitely not "out of the box".
