Comments on: Top 5 Most Stable Linux Distributions in 2022 https://tecadmin.net/best-stable-linux-distributions/ How to guide for System Administrator's and Developers Tue, 20 Dec 2022 10:10:08 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.1 By: John https://tecadmin.net/best-stable-linux-distributions/#comment-65599 Tue, 20 Dec 2022 10:10:08 +0000 https://tecadmin.net/?p=28125#comment-65599 So many distros but most are not very stable. Look for a stable set of developers who maintain the distro properly.
This is why Ubuntu, Pop OS, Mint, Debian rise to the top. It’s also why many others tend to adopt these bigger distro releases with their own added tweaks. But one distro may work fine on your hardware and terrible on another. So sometimes it’s all about finding the one distro that works on a specific hardware configuration.

really, try installing fedora from live cd after a few month and upgrade with ~ 2GB worth of updates,

This is very unstable linux distro.
it has awful and unstable package manager and it is the only distro which can crash and restart during updates.

so stable indeed that they pushed a hack into a feature, they literally implemented updates to be done on restart,
cause their package manager is TOO BAD to be able to update on a running system

also they are notorious to break things after upgrade to latest 6 month version from previous one,
recently 21.10 version broke all gnome plugins from 21.04 version…

Btw. nice article. But don’t include keyword “stable”.

Arch linux as a stable linux distribution? Arch linux is rolling. Stable is complete opposite of rolling. Stable means a bit older software and you are assured by developers that your system will not break after the update. Arch linux is rolling. It has latest apps and latest kernel etc. Also updates come daily on rolling distros (all apps are updated whenever they release a latest version of their software) while stable distros release each year or even multiple years. Good stable distros are Debian, OpenSUSE Leap for example. Also Fedora is pure rolling. Arch and Fedora are two most known for being rolling. On the list Ubuntu and Linux mint are fine(sort of stable but it is still considered stable). OpenSUSE has two versions(stable and rolling).

Agreed. Debian is a great distro.
