Obviously security by obscurity is not security. The tone of bad
faith right at the start is not appreciated.
The FSF hosts the Savannah servers. At the present time they are
recommending the following FSF-free distributions.
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html
The distribution they are installing these days is Trisquel. Which is
based on Ubuntu. Which is a fork of Debian. In previous years I know
the implementation would be Ubuntu at times and Debian at times and at
times others of which I am unaware. Presently they are installing
Trisquel. Maybe in the future it will be something different.

This isn't my preferred system. I will hazard a safe guess that it is
not yours either. However it is sufficient to the task.
