Vanilla OS is the Ubuntu derivative, Vanilla OS 2 Orchid will be the Debian derivative

TY, when scrolling through the site, I didn't find a single time mentioning it Ubuntu, but Debian compatibility. However the beta release notification is enlightening:

The system consists of a hybrid base of Debian packages and Vib modules. The major change in Orchid is the switch from Ubuntu to Debian, providing more flexibility and control over the system and update distribution.
