    Mx linux is a bad chioce if you cant answer this yourself because its going to differ from most other debian distros. You probably want to use normal debian or linux mint if you are still learning.

    To answer anyway; youll want to install lighttpd or similar server using apt, then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd so you can properly configure the server to start.

    If you just use debian instead, “sudo apt install lighttpd” would be enough to get everything started.

      How? It’s just Debian with extra tools and sysvinit besides systemd.

      then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd

      Or just set systemd as a default

            I think you know its not just a matter of “clicking a setting in a gui once”

            Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!

              I know it is that simple because I’ve done it while running MX on my devices… You can even switch between the two at boot freely.

              Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!

              It comes with tools that make system management a lot easier for beginners. I think that’s more than a fair trade for having to click a single setting in a gui.

              You obviously haven’t used MX, and I have no clue where you’re pulling your opinions out of from. Give it a try instead of continuing to spew nonsense.
