Are you rocking it live, in a VM or did you install it?
I just logged out of my Jessie install, because it makes my fan run harder plus makes me feel limited a bit... (installed it in just case Sid brakes something (and probably could tweak the fan thing++.)) I have Sid and Jessie installed on my SSD. With a second slide out hard drive, Slackware's installed there. If anything anything goes wrong on any of them, can always still log in somewhere.
Add: next time I redo the SSD Jessie will be a netinst (CLI only) to cut down on space.

I'm actually using it on a VPS droplet on digitalocean.com. I was using Ubuntu before but it was setup for me by a friend and I really wanted to learn it all myself so I chose Debian purely based on the toy story naming conventions haha.

Whatever your reasons, it was still a good choice.

I too just signed up for an account on Digital Ocean. I chose to go with Fedora. I was able to setup SSH, and do an update to Fedora after install, but am stuck on installing a GUI.
