I'm hard-pressed to name a feature that Ubuntu has that isn't part of Debian. But it's what people like, so I package for Ubuntu :/
It used to be that Ubuntu had more resources to test against various laptop hardware. These days, it's much easier to buy hardware that just works with any kernel.
Unless you intend to pay for support, I see no reason to not prefer Debian in 2024.

not really, some libraries might have different ABI
