My question to the community is: which distro has the most packages?
I read somewhere that Debian is the toploader in that regard, but recently I read that the RPM based distros are favored of having the most wide selection of packages. Is this true, or are there more debs outthere for Ubuntu users to use if you compare Ubuntu to OpenSUSE or Fedora?

Debian has the most packages by far ((accessible through repositories)) while it seems that classier pieces of software and drivers seem to favor Suse/Fedora because their demographic tends to be more business related..
pretty sure atleast lol
