I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?

      To me, Debian is almost perfect.

      I agree, but ever since systemD, well…

          Devuan is awesome, but I’ve moved to Void! Devuan is a ripper though!

      I wouldn’t call it rock solid… It was running old versions of kde with lots of bugs. Bugs that had been fixed months ago.

      So I don’t know. It’s good we have choice but I don’t personally see Debian as more stable than arch. I see it as having older bugs than arch.

        KDE could fix 80% of it’s bugs overnight and it will still be the most bug-ridden DE by a longshot

          Yep, most features and most bugs. I go back and forth between kde and Gnome when a bug annoys me too much.
