Debian hands down delivers the most stable experience of em all -- even after updating from stable to sid.
t. Did exactly that on a unsupported sbc, "Orange pi zero 3", and everything works.
thanks but Debain isn't easy to use
...wait what
So you think Gentoo is okay but Debian isnt?
I was guessing but that doesn't mean it doesn't work And yes I know Debain is easy nowadays but regardless I will try Debain or even better MX Linux and Linux mint Debain edition
Delving into the realm of non-rolling distros, yes MX is quite good (sits on top of Debian). I've used the latest version on a laptop seeing almost daily use for 1.5 years or so and zero issues. And thread originator is correct, Debian is the gold standard for a stable linux experience.
that's why I want to try it later because it's the really Best Distro for most of my old computers that otherwise use puppy or antix
