I wouldn't have said off-topic, I treat my two Pis as if they were
running standard Debian and very rarely bump into anything
Pi-specific, despite their fairly exotic hardware. I try things out on
my HP Intel workstation running sid, and can normally transfer results
directly to a Pi on 32 or 64 bit ARM.

The Pi variant is orders of magnitude closer to real Debian than Ubuntu
and other derivatives. It's really only installation which is
significantly different, and with which users of real Debian will not
be able to help.
