At previous job, I've installed and maintained a wiki farm with multiple
sites, interwiki setup and caching while another emploee installed
MediaWiki from repository via single command and told to former boss that
my work is very simple. I hate anything web-related in packages because of
that.

Speaking of Ubuntu, I think WMF is running a lot of Ubuntu / Debian
systems. So, Ubuntu should be the best way of running MediaWiki.

I have experience with Ubuntu but MediaWiki says that Ubuntu is
unsupported. Which Linux distro would people recommend, and which distro of
Linux does WMF use for MediaWiki? I am thinking about installing Debian but
am open to any suggestions that have a friendly UX.
Solaris is an option also.

MediaWiki package is unsupported and usually outdated. We do not recommend

I suppose that could refer only to aptitude and not Ubuntu support
I think that's referring to the package distributed by Ubuntu/Canonical,
not support for running the app if you install it via some other method.

Yep. That means that the package available on Ubuntu is not supported.

Yes that's correct. The Ubuntu package isn't officially supported.
This is more a historical thing than anything else, as a couple years
