and if you search on 'ubuntu 20'?
- vacri 13y agoUbuntu has the benefit of peculiar version numbers. But Debian doesn't. I've often searched for "Debian 6 foo" and received results where '6' is a page number or part of a date or someone's handle.
- MarkTee 13y agoYou're actually including those quotation marks in your query, right? Because if you search for "Debian 6 foo", you should only be seeing results that contain that exact phrase (on Google, anyways).
- vacri 13y agoI google in a variety of manners. I find codenames return a cleaner set of results than version numbers. If I search by codename, I don't need to also add the distribution name. "wheezy" is shorter than "debian 7", and doesn't need quotes. This being said, I'm not using a distro that discards a version every 6 months, so I don't need to keep a 'continually scrolling' list of codewords in my head.
