    There where Times when Ubuntu was Marks baby, but nowadays with pro, advertisement and tracking in the terminal an AppStore, everything has to have a businesscase.

    I would recommend just plain Debian either with flatpak or in the testing branch. It’s almost the same, stable as a rock and driven by a community.

            Yes it runs quite stable. But the packages and their configuration can change.

            If you’re looking for something more conservative, the stable branch fits better but on a desktop it’s very old (like an Ubuntu lts)

              thats precisely my problem with debian stable, but id be ok with testing if it doesnt break unpredictably with regular updates.
