I can use a community for my OS?

Debian is a community.

Debian GNU/Linux is a non-commercial Linux distribution, ergo not a product.

Well, I was just corrected by someone taking time out of their day to tell me it's a community, not an OS.

I've installed Debian before, so I thought perhaps I was mistaken.

Context is really critical here.
