I played with both Ubuntu and Debian and found that for my use Debian worked better. It has older packages, but I encountered fewer issues implementing certain functionality like headless Selenium and Python. All that said, you could easily go with Ubuntu as well as it was solid too. I just had some issues with certain elements that may have been due to user error, but I did not have time to troubleshoot especially when Debian worked out of the box.
Thank you.
I may add to this by saying that I found it somewhat easier to build a LAMP server on Debian than Ubuntu (issues with php5.6 / 7). But this could just be me.
