There's a lot of commonality across most distros, so while something (the link I referenced, for example) was from an Ask Ubuntu branch of Stackexchange, a lot of the advice in it is still applicable.

It helps to understand where distros differ. Package management differs, including policies for what gets
packaged, and (where there are viable alternatives), which is installed and configured, accounts for many
differences. For example: SElinux is available in Debian, but the default iis AppArmor.

Indeed. I've jumped between RH-based and Debian-based distros a little in the last few years. I started tracking some of the deltas here: https://github.com/wmcdonald404/distrosetta-stone

Basic package management stuff because it's not muscle-memory like it used to be. PRs welcome ;-) (I have a domain reg-ed for this too if there's any desire to turn it into something more comprehensive.)
